[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#741554: closed by Elimar Riesebieter <riesebie at lxtec.de> (Re: Bug#741554:)

You haven't given any explanation as to why you're closing this bug report,
you don't know whether it is truly a bug or what's actually going on, and I
don't know what info to give more to troubleshoot this issue I'm having.
Please reopen the bug, and let others help by properly troubleshooting my
issue or give a better explanation why you closed this bug report.
Don't go ahead and close bugs just because you "feel" they're solved.
Actually you haven't even given me a resolution to begin with.

I'm not using a mailer, I'm sending those messages right from my mail
client so there's nothing to check.

And I repeat in case you forgot:
I'm NOT using Pulse Audio, all that you saw when I listed the installed
packages with "pulse" in their names are simply *DUMMY packages* to prevent
programs from requiring Pulse Audio, and prevent things like SDL compiling
against it. There's nothing to set up in Pulse, only in ALSA.

Also if I were to follow your logic, it would mean that the minute I play
something through this soundcard, it should shoot a jet of errors the like
I gave earlier in this bug report, but that doesn't happen. I'll remind you
(once) again:
Sound WORKS fine for an undetermined period of time (ranges from 5 minutes
of playing music to 2 hours so far), right after which this error pops up
in multiple rows, I hear repetitively the last sample played, and the whole
OS/PC becomes UNRESPONSIVE.

By how many times this has happened by now I'd also appreciate a way to
shutdown ALSA so I could use the PC again. I tried both
$ alsa force unload

and

$ sudo invoke-rc.d alsa-utils stop

Both which show the ALSA has stopped, but the annoying repetitive sounds
don't stop and the system is still struggling with 100% CPU load.
