using two sounddevices?

[Karl MacMillan]

I think that there are some sync issues when using two sound cards in
this way that may only show up when trying to do real time processing
like PD.  As far as I know there is no provision for this in PD at the
moment but I have written the beginnings of this into the ALSA driver
code that is in the latest release.  One of the questions is how to
specify which devices to open on the command line.  Any thoughts
anyone?  The -soundoutdev and -soundindev only apply to the RME
Hammerfall card.
