apart from just preventing your harddisk from spinning down, you could
also have increased the -t timeout value.

the semantics of --nozombies only prevent zombification of clients which
dont respond to audiocallbacks in time.
if the client hits the request timeout for normal requests it gets
zombified.

its been a long time since i have seen these kinds of lockups.
what kernel are you using ?
