+These plugins are used to create virtual devices that can be used like
+normal hardware devices but cause extra processing of the sound stream to
+take place. They are used while configuring ALSA in the .asoundrc file.
+
+ffmpeg, speex, jack-audio-connection-kit, and pulseaudio are optional.
+If you want to build modules for them, you need them installed in advance.
