Background: I am wanting to use my pi as a AD2P sink and stream audio from my phone to the pi to an ALSA multi that goes to USB sound card for my speakers and a loopback so that MLSC can catch the other side of the loopback.
I create the loopback using: sudo modprobe snd-aloop
Input Device id 0 - Loopback: PCM (hw:0,0)
Input Device id 1 - Loopback: PCM (hw:0,1)
Input Device id 2 - USB Audio Device: - (hw:1,0)
Input Device id 3 - loopin
Input Device id 4 - loopout
I am playing music to the multi via the "both" ppm plug for "multi" and it is playing out of hw:1,0 (a USB sound card) and the loopback, however MLSC is not getting audio from from the loopback via "loopout" for some reason.
I know that the audio is in fact playing to multi and correctly making it to the loopback as I have recorded its output to confirm so
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Please let me know of any other relevant details I could share to aid in diagnosing this issue. Thank you. :D
welp, it is working, I guess the default audio sample rate was just too much for my pi to handle. After lowering it, it is now working. I suppose this is a disadvantage of the microphone-less method I am using.

I have configured my asound.conf as below:

pcm.loopout { type plug slave.pcm "plughw:Loopback,1,0" }
pcm.both { type plug slave.pcm "multi" }

In MLSC I use audio input 4:
