<div>I suspect that this is an easier question than I'm making

<div>I am using a Beaglebone Black running Debian as the brains
of a stereo setup. I am running squeezelite (a software player
for the logitech media server), piping it into ecasound for
equalization and crossover filters, and finally sox for
dithered re-quantization so that everything can be sent out to
a dinky USB soundcard. This is all I plan on having the
Beaglebone do, at least for the time being. </div>

<div>I have a bash script that does all this, cobbled together
from a really great guide at <a href="http://rtaylor.sites.tru.ca/2013/06/25/digital-crossovereq-with-open-source-software-howto/" target="_blank">http://rtaylor.sites.tru.ca/2013/06/25/digital-crossovereq-with-open-source-software-howto/</a>
. With a couple anonymizing modifications, it looks
something like this:</div>

<div>The problem is daemonizing it and having it run at
startup. Something tells me this is due to failure to
understand scripting generally and pipes specifically. For
now, I have to start a putty session and run the script
myself. I have yet to find a good way to get it going
automatically.</div>

Hi Ian,<br>
<br>
You haven't mentioned how it is failing. Is there an error
message?<br>
<br>
Taking a WAG, this may be as simple a PATHing difference between
interactive vs non-interactive users. Try adding the full path
names to <span><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">ecasound
