Summary:                    driver hangs when trying to load a soundfont >8MB
Description: 
The alsa driver and the applications using it hang, unkillable and unable
to be unloaded, when I try to load a soundfont larger than 8MB. This
sometimes results in the appearance of a page fault message when shutting
down. The shutdown is never completed because the disk cannot be
unmounted, presumably because the alsa driver is still frozen while trying
load the soundfont from it.

I found a thread in the alsa-devel archives discussing this problem:
http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg12386.html

I see that the discussed patch has been applied, but I still have this
problem. I haven't tested with versions prior to 1.0.4 because they did
not compile with the later library version, but I do know that it was
working not too long ago (with kernel 2.6.x).

To add to this report! Sfxload don't work with alsa 1.0.5, too!

I marked this as a 1.0.5a bug, but it doesn't look like it showed up in the
report.

I tested this with 32 MB soundfont what I have and it worked.
If this is free soundfont can you give link to it ????

I've tried it with multiple soundfonts, but here are two examples:

http://www.hammersound.net/cgi-bin/soundlink.pl?action=view_download_page;ID=116;SoundFont_Filename_Selected=mustheory2.sfArk
http://bennetng.kc-studio.com/bennetng_AnotherGS_v2-0.exe

Unfortunately the first requires the sfArk program, and the second is a
self-extracting sfArk. Both should work under Wine, at least.
