kernel/alsa oops

kernel/alsa oops

[walt]

I update from Linus every day, so I'm running his latest alsa
updates as of 03April.

I just got this kernel oops, which is reproducible:
 Oops: 0000 [#1]

This is what I did to reproduce this oops:

I was playing a video with mplayer, which I put on 'pause'.
I started listening to BBC Radio with RealPlayer-10.0.7.
I then took mplayer off of pause, which instantly produced
this kernel oops.

Judging from the behavior of all the apps I was running at
the time, it seems that RealPlay was the one which actually
crashed.  Everything else seems okay.

Any ideas?  Need any further info?

Does the following patch fix your problem, too?
It's by OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp>.

No, but the oops is different now:  When I start the paused mplayer
running again, the sound becomes very 'metallic' until I put mplayer
back on 'pause'.  Then I instantly get this oops:

Would it help you if I find which one of Linus's commits caused
this problem?  I suspect you already know, but I would be happy to
help in any way I can.

Thanks!
