Bug report

Describe the bug

After update to alsa-lib 1.2.7.1, playback to snd-aloop works no more. Other output works fine. I guess maybe because mpd send the wrong arguments? Here's my asoundrc:

pcm.er4s {
    # Direct hardware access
    type        hw

    # Loopback card name
    #
    # Has to match "id" in the options of the snd-aloop module
    card        "Loopback"

    # Loopback device ID
    device      0

    # Number of audio channels
    #
    # Has to match the number of channels in music player app
    # and in the CamillaDSP input configuration
    channels    2

    # Format of audio stream
    #
    # Has to match the format defined in the
    # of the CamillaDSP input configuration
    format      "FLOAT_LE"

    # Sampling-rate of audio stream
    #
    # Has to match the sampling-rate defined in the
    # CamillaDSP configuration
    rate        48000
}

ctl.er4s {
    type hw
    card "Loopback"
}
