As far as I know, the ability to mux audio streams is a function of
whether the ALSA driver for the particular sound adaptor supports it.

Well when I run "aplay --nonblock file.wav" - 2 at a time both wave
files play.<br>
However when I run asterisk and then try aplay --nonblock file.wav it
wont play at all.<br>
So asterisk is binding the port.<br>
<br>
How can I keep it from binding the port?<br>
