Does anyone know of an easy way to get the correct audiodev # for a specific soundcard? I am using an embedded environment and I need to start pd with the correct device in a situation where different devices may/may not be used. In this case, the audiodev # may change.<BR>

It's annoying that I can't run -alsa -listdev and parse the stdout since I can't seem to pipe it anywhere. Too bad -listdev doesn't print and exit, because I could then search for the line containing the name of my sound card and grab the number from it. This is what I do with aconnect to wait until pd's midi is ready before connecting midi to it. (it's a slow machine)<BR>

I read on some old posts about the "-alsadev" switch, but this was taken out? At least in jack I can use the alsa name to avoid this issue ala "-d hw:UA25". Of course with the update to Jaunty, now jack seems to be flakier then before, so I'm trying to use pd -rt directly.<BR>
