Somedays, my thinking isn't at its best. A simple 'cat' or redirection
works well for this purpose:
"record" from dsp1 and playback on dsp0:
cat /dev/dsp1.0 > /dev/dsp0.0
record to file, with playback while recording:
tee soundfile.test < /dev/dsp1.0 > /dev/dsp0.0
and playback of the file afterwards:
cat soundfile.test > /dev/dsp0.0
And it all works. Nice!
