Audio didn't properly recover after missed interrupts (which
happens on MP systems). The new audio driver (in 5.8 and -current)

I'd suggest trying -current; there's a new audio driver and many
audio-related fixes. Furthermore we're not interested in debugging
the old code that we already deleted :)
