  Modified:    src/plugins/alsa09 ao_alsa09.c
  Log:
  ok, first, don't try to calculate period_size, just use a period of 50ms
  (this is the default that xmms uses).  Using this period size drasticly
  reduces cpu usage (50%->6%) on my epia w/ via sound card.
  Also, don't set any software settings, they aren't neccessary
  (alsaplayer sets no sw params! and xmms only sets threshold, which
  causes problems for dmix) So instead, lets use the default sw params,
  as alsa-lib is prolly better at picking them than we are.
