Thanks drmatt!

The first problem now seems intermittent, so very hard to get closer to
what might be causing it. Regarding the second, I have it down to a
aplit second of noise now, after removing the module from modules-load
and firing off a small stream of silence through a udev rule when the
DAC is plugged/discovered at startup.  Still a split-second too much
though :(.
