Application specific alsa slave (normalize volume of flash9)

I am trying to normalize volume of flash9.
my ~/.asoundrc

pcm.compress {
    type ladspa
    slave.pcm "plughw:0,0";
    path "/usr/lib/ladspa";
    plugins [
        {
            label dysonCompress
            output {
                controls [ 0.0 0.1 1.0 1.0 ]
            }
        }
    ]
}

pcm.!default {
#pcm.pcompress {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "compress";
}

since I replaced pcm.pcompress with pcm.!default, all applicaitons, including firefox, which has flash9 will go through dysonCompressor ladspa plugin.

But I want only firefox/flash9 to use dysonCompressor.
In other words, I will comment out pcm.!default and comment in pcm.pcompress. Then, I want to make sure only flash9 will use that slave.

Is it possible? I don't want to use libflashsupport + aoss.

So, can alsa be configured so that specific application will use specific slave?

There is ~/.macromedia/Flash_Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sol
But it's binary.

Thank you.
