alsa's emulation.  it seems to work with other programs, so i assume a
bug in xine.  for debugging...  is there a way to dump or ``tee''
the audio output into a file?

because i have not the slightest idea about it (how should i?!) i could
probably figure it out by reading the source, but, frankly, i won't do
that.  it'd take me days, as compared to minutes for the author of the
alsa09 driver.

probably a good idea.
