From 6afa1a2afc2ca5631d380477bc6d3e4ecc9865da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2014 22:19:43 +0200 Subject: ao_alsa: disable use of non-interleaved formats by default Some ALSA plugins take non-interleaved audio, but treat it as interleaved, which results in various funny bugs. Users keep hitting this issue, and it just doesn't seem worth the trouble.
