But I have only a simple stereo system connected to only one output. Should I do anything? Can I tell sound driver and hardware to not bother and route sound to only one output? Should I simply disable the unused jacks (with as=0) or maybe split them off to separate pcms that I won't use? Thank you in advance. -- Andriy Gapon
