I've searched the net and came up with the configuration below. but I don't think my cmus install is using alsa.
How do I know? Well, I installed strawberry and have configured it to use alsa. If I play youtube on the browser and then try playing on strawberry , I'll get a message that goes like "playback device is busy right now". I have to stop the Youtube playback first before strawberry starts playing music.
If I do same with cmus, I can hear sound from **both** cmus and Youtube.
Any ideas? Thanks
**this is my configuration**
