alsa breaks alsaplayer on powermac

alsa breaks alsaplayer on powermac

[Jack Howarth]

   The current alsa-driver, alsa-libs and alsa-utils seem to work
fine with the snd-powermac driver on my Apple G4 Sawtooth Powermac
in both alsa and oss compatibility mode. However, there still is
a conflict with the current alsa-player cvs. As before we are still
getting...

alsaplayer
alsaplayer: pcm.c:5655: snd_pcm_unlink_ptr: Assertion `0' failed.
AlsaPlayer interrupted by signal 6


Has any of the developers been able to reproduce this? Is there
any code changes we can try to test solutions to this problem?
                   Jack

i didn't get this error on mine yet on a powermac with screamer.
it's weird.  yes, apparently it's a bug of alsa itself, but not known
whether it lies on pmac driver or on alsa-lib.

i'm wondering from where this function is called.
is it possible to trace it on gdb?
