Hi all,

I am having serious trouble with ALSA using the poll method as shown in the
pcm.c test app...

Under certain conditions (yet to be established properly - it doesn't happen
every single time) with this ICE1712 card (DSP24), snd_pcm_writei doesn't
just block... it never comes back.  I thought it may be a bug in the old
version of ALSA (0.9.8) so updated the drivers and libs to latest, which had
no effect on the problem at all.

A bit more thorough checking reveals that the problem only happens at 88200
and 96000 sampling rates... not at 22050, 24000, 44100 or 48000.  That's a
bit worrying...

It's only started to happen regularly (used to be _very_ rare) since I
upgraded the development machine from an Intel 815, Celeron 1.0G to a
SiS651, Celeron 2.0G setup.

The kernel is 2.4.22+ll+supermount if that offers any clues... APIC is
turned off, as in the past I couldn't get any sound at all in Linux with it
enabled...

Cheers,

Tom Browne.
