Hi, A little further study has revealed two additional facts here: 1) this happens with xine, 2) restarting X (logging out and logging back in again) releases the locks .
This would imply that somehow the ALSA devices are staying open, even though the user-space processes have (apparently) gone away. Or maybe something which doesn't show up on "ps -ef" is lingering... But at least it doesn't seem related to the kernel modules. Does anyone have any theories as to what could be keeping these devices open?
