Probably one of the most popular questions I see new users ask about gnomeradio is along the lines of the following:
"It looks like gnomeradio is working (showing me gui), but for some reason I am not hearing any audio. What is wrong with my tuner?"
Unfortunately, in the vast majority of cases, there is nothing wrong with the tuner. The problem is that gnomeradio was originally designed to be used with older tuner cards that have a dedicated audio output cable, which you are expected to connect to speakers. Most newer tuner products deliver their audio via an ALSA device, for which gnomeradio has no mechanism to route the audio to soundcard.
As a result, users end to run sox or arecord/aplay in a separate terminal window (which always seemed like a rather ridiculous workaround).
Solution: Added support for looping back audio through alsa devices. This feature automatically get an alsa device associated with a radio device. It will start an audio streaming between the radio device and the audio output device.
