 The CS4299 is not capable of hardware mixing. This means that only one sound stream can be played at any time.
 You must get the software to do the mixing for it (this will load your CPU).

 You also need to disable mmap and increase the buffer and period time in the advanced options.

-Now the only problem is how to tell applications to use the DMIX channel instead of dsp0. Most applications work by specifying "dmix" as the device. For command line apps use "aoss". Hint: XMMS does not work well with dmix and the intel8x0. You will probably need to patch and recompile. See:

-The ALSA implementation of this is called DMIX. You can also run sound servers like ESD or ArtsD, but not all software will use them.

 Recent ALSA distributions have dmixing setup and enabled by default.
