It seems I have been celebrating too early. Here's the scoop on my current issues:
I have finally managed to produce sound with the darn thing, but every so often now I get sporadic "crackle" out of the output, as well as complete distortion of the sound, almost as if the pitch is constantly oscillating literally in a sinusoidal fashion somewhere around 5-10 cycles/sec. When I reboot or wait for a longer time, the problem goes away. It seems as if the card is going in and out of sync. Here's once more my asound.stat in hopes it may reveal something that I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
