Please leave your feedback on https://github.com/linuxaudio/Linux-Audio-Workgroup/wiki/Towards-Fixing-ALSA here.
Suggestions to add to the discussion, typos, general comments, etc. The wiki should reflect the current conclusions reached.

One thing which could anchor the arguments and future discussions is linking each one of the technical issues with a concrete use case which depends upon them. It might seem verbose, but I think going from user level problem to technical level problem to solution could work as a better flow.

One proposition from a user point of view.

This might be added to this FAQ if you guys think it's relevant since I'm not 100% sure if it's ALSA/JACK/PulseAudio/whatever related, not being a code insider. I'm leaving that to your knowledge.
