You dont even have to set up dmix anymore, recent versions of alsalib
are smart enough to do software mixing automaticly. Recent discussion
on lkml is proposing janking OSS out. Alsa's OSS emulation cant solve
the mixing problem, though, so we are probably stuck with 'sound daemons'
and legacy OSS software for a while yet...

Is that can't as in is not possible with the architecture or as in nobody has implemented it yet?
