Public bug reported:
Buffer-size part of the first played sound always gets stuck in the loop until
the program generating that sound is terminated. I started a thread on our
forums to discuss this and the issue was reproduced by another user. Sound chip
is ALC889A on GA-MA790X-DS4 motherboard.
On 2 occasions the sound actually started working all by itself (surround test
came out OK, even stereo MP3 was correctly upmixed to 5.1 without any
fiddling), but since then speaker-test (-c6 -l1) complains about "device or
resource busy" and after "sudo alsa force-reload" there's the infinite loop
problem all over again (it gets stuck on testing the first speaker in the
sequence).
I thought this might be just some sort of misconfiguration but after the sound
started working (until the next start and then once more, but that was all), it
seem more like driver issue. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help
tracking down the source of the problem.
I first encountered the problem in ubuntu 8.04 but it's still present in 8.04.1
ALSA drivers are v1.0.16
