Tried. I haven't been able to freeze box after some not very long torturing
with artsd, but there is another new trouble:

For test I'm letting artsd to play some WAV file and after that give some
time for it to close /dev/dsp. After some times there is no more sound and
I'm getting a message that /dev/dsp is busy when trying to restart artsd.
Anyway I can reload i810_audio driver and restart artsd to get sound working
again. 'fuser /dev/dsp' also doesn't show that it is opened
