From b20be8de1b3972ccf9af72850b045214faa8d830 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Clemens Ladisch Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2013 20:26:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 29/29] ALSA: dice: restrict the driver to playback-only devices At the moment, this driver supports only playback, while FFADO supports (only) full-duplex devices. So, prevent conflicts by not claiming devices that would be better handled by FFADO.
