+The first number from /dev/snd/pcmC{X}D{Y}[c|p] expression means
+soundcard number and second means device number. The ALSA devices
+have either 'c' or 'p' suffix indicating the direction, capture and
+playback, respectively.

Please note that the device mapping above may be varied via the module
options of snd-pcm-oss module.
