Hi!

Since i'm running the 2.6.0 (2.6.0-test9-bk1 currently) kernel i encounter
problems with alsa sound playback.

I got a Thinkpad A31 with Debian, so i use the intel8x0 driver. I compiled the
drivers into the kernel. The compiling works just fine, also the sound playback
runs without problems.

The sound is very scatterd and parts of the playback are repeated sometims.
Stopping the playback and starting it again, fixes it - somtimes, and if then
only for a couple of seconds.

I tested it with xmms (output: libALSA.so and libesdout.so), mpg123 and mplayer.
I tried it with and without esd.


lspci reports:
00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)



/var/log/kern.log shows the following error messages:

I searched the web but didn't find a similar problem.
