Oops? Linux 2.4.19 + snd-usb-audio (ALSA 0.9.0-rc5)

Has anyone else seen a kernel panic when unplugging a busy (i.e.
actively playing music) USB audio device using snd-usb-audio with Linux
2.4.19 and ALSA 0.90-rc5? 

I'll send my ksymoops output in a bit... Just wondering if this is just
seen on my box. 


Thanks,

I think that will happen with most PCMCIA and USB devices in linux.
For my system, I have to specifically rmmod all the modules associated 
with the device before removing it.
I have written scripts to help me. E.g "eject-nic" that is for ejecting 
the Network interface PCMCIA card.
Also, "eject-camera" etc.
I think people will have to wait until kernel 2.5.x or above for better 
plug-n-unplug support.
Maybe I am wrong, and it is just a co-incidence that all the devices I 
have had bugs in the drivers.

Cheers
James
