Hi, I am debugging a problem that seems to require me to reboot the machine after it happens as Alsa cannot recover. I am wondering whether there is any known way to script a complete Alsa restart, like I can do with networking or other drivers, so that I wouldn't have to do this reboot?
I've tried /etc/init.d/alsasound stop and then start. This doesn't work. I've tried the stop/start with an rmmod of everything I can see in lsmod, but this doesn't work either. I suspect that a big part of the problem is that the sound card itself is getting into a state that the drivers and Alsa do not have the capabilities to get it out of and possibly what's happening is the reboot fixes it via a PCI reset operation. Can anyone recommend a method that might actually work? This is a bit painful because right now a simple adjustment even in alsamixer requires me to reboot the machine.
