There is NO foobar or asio output in linux/osx and soundcard support is VERY limited (in linux). GETTING sound is not hard. Getting sound not resampled, messed up or anything... you better have a very widespread and popular audio chipset otherwise you're SOL.
And I'm sorry but Amarok is not foobar. Period. You can NOT control all the variables and settings you have access to in foobar. You just cant' There is Aqualung, but it is extremley hard to set up and get working, and it also relies on the fact that you have a popular audio chipset.
And games. No comparison to windows. I would use linux in a heartbeat if it had all this.
Believe me, I am fairly experienced with linux and have tried ... several times.
If anybody can tell me how to get my original SRC resampler foobar plugin working in lunux, along with 100% memory playback and bitperfect (asio) 24-bit output using the digital coaxial output on the ESI Juli@ sound card, then we'll talk. As far as I'm concerned right now, it's not possible.
And how to run all my DX8/9 and soon 10 games in linux with no weird bugs or graphical glitches and performance just as good or better as in windows. Again currently not possible as far as I'm concerned.
I'm not ripping linux and I would switch in a heartbeat if I could get these things, but they simply do not exist...
