c00701101b82f2bc61dfc259748ec6e5288af6a9 ALSA: pcm - A helper function
to compose PCM stream name for debug prints

The crash happened with alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot from 2009-06-07
and with alsa-driver-snapshot from 2009-06-08.

Still no usable output. Only dmesg gives me two more lines when loading
the module:
ALSA /usr/src/alsa-driver/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c:1248: ctxfi: chip 20K1 model
Unknown (1102:002c) is found
SB-XFi 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
ALSA
/usr/src/alsa-driver/pci/ctxfi/../../alsa-kernel/pci/ctxfi/cttimer.c:419:
ctxfi: Use xfi-native timer

With debug=full, the sound gets distorted every 1/3 second.

The crash only happens in xmms and audacious, when my upmix-device is
used (there I use a low pass filter via ladspa). When I use the default
device, it just plays fine (but only plain stereo without subwoofer ;) ).
I'll try to disable the low pass filter to see, if it works better.

Thanks!
