Drupal Views & URL Alias Override Issue

Question

I have a taxonomy vocabulary called 'catalogue'. Within this, I have levels of terms. Some have sub-terms, some have nodes.

I have two views to handle these: One to show sub categories, one to show nodes, each with a filter applied based on the URL. If I go to sub-category/category-name , it would show me all the sub-terms in category name. If I go to product-category/category-name , I get a list of related nodes.

With no aliases, the view works properly on sub-category/% . The problem with this is that the generated links for the sub-terms aren't to the view, they're to the term page.

If I create aliases, it overrides the view and shows no results on sub-category/% pages and default node teasers on product-category/% .

Can I use aliases with views in this way?

Sounds like you want to re-write the output of the Field instead of creating aliases. If you're not familiar with that particular feature in Views, see the screenshot below from http://highrockmedia.com/blog/rewriting-drupal-views-output-custom-theming-css

Note that instead of creating a <div> wrapper, you can create your own link as needed. Hopefully this will help you get started in the right direction.
