Note: Dsnoop works well when the slave.pcm is a hardware device but as soon as I point to something else it fails.
Is there a workaround or any other solution to tackle this problem?
Problem
I am facing problems in using "dsnoop" to share/divide the audio stream into two. When dsnoop plugins' slave is set to be a FIFO it throws an error.
