The above message is correct since 16 SRC (Type 1 resource) have been

Which oss applications are you rnning ?
Since you are using VIA chipset, have you try the pcifix switch ?

If there are 16 instances of aplay playing mono stream.
What error will be returned by snd_pcm_open() for the 17th instance of
aplay ?
alsa-kernel/pci/au88x0/au8810.h
#define NR_ADB 0x10
alsa-kernel/pci/au88x0/au8830.h
#define NR_ADB 0x20
alsa-kernel/pci/au88x0/au88x0.c
if ((err = snd_vortex_new_pcm(chip, VORTEX_PCM_ADB, NR_ADB)) < 0) {
snd_card_free(card);
return err;
}

I'm not too sure, but i _can_ tell you that lastly i had two weird errors
about something adb, when snd-au8810 didn't play any sound anymore, i was
able to kill all apps who use sound and modprobe -r snd-au8810, and modprobe
again, and without reboot i was able to get sound working again.
I must say that i haven't been on this PC much and haven't had much time to
test these things, allthough i'm planning too, (but i think i'll update CVS
first with these 2 patches who got lost accidentally before i test this. I
hope i'll get some time this week(end).
thanks for all the help and info concerning snd-au8810 (in 64bit)

Although au8810, au8820 and au8830 have 16 Sample Rate Convertors.
For au8820 and au8830 driver, snd_pcm_hw_params() will return "no more
mixer error" and "no more sample rate convertor error" before all
configured substreams are opened.
It seem to me that au8810's problem is related to snd_pcm_open()
after all configured substreams are opened.
May be you can change NR_ADB from 0x10 to 0x20 (a dirty workaround) ?

In your case, if there are one or more stereo stream playing,
snd_pcm_hw_params() will return "no more sample rate convertor error"
before all configured substreams are opened.

Igor V. Kovalenko already include the two lost patches in his patch to
