ALSA support?

When will ALSA support come for Teamspeak?
I've got sound and microphone working perfectly with ALSA, but can't get it working with OSS not matter what I try, aoss, ~.asoundrc, compiling different drivers.

Hi,

ALSA support sure would be nice, its a long established standard on linux now, especially since the kernel explicitly marks OSS as (OBSOLETE) ;\

I got teamspeak2 to work with my alsa setup (I have an onboard Intel8x0 soundcard, some nForce4 type. Really nothing very good, but functional enough I've not yet decided to replace it as the cost of good soundcards is way out of reality) by way of artsdsp. I run KDE so I have to go with arts as far as software mixing goes, I can't tell you about ESD here, so if your using that your probably out of luck. Its too bad too, since teamspeak2, an oss app, its the only reason I have artsd installed these days, since dmix works so well now.

If you do run kde, or you can install artsd independently, do so, setup arts and edit your teamspeak script to execute artsdsp on the line where it actually calls teamspeak. This should work. I used kcontrol to force full duplex, and I used artsdsp -m (mmx if I recall correctly), and it does work more or less perfectly.

Good luck!
