I don't think so. I do experience some hard lockups when playing sounds
with the "mxaudio" mpeg player on my notebook, which doesn't have an ISDN
card.

It could be a generic "interrupt" problem, as notebook was connected to a
busy Ethernet (3com pcmcia card) when that happened.

The sound driver used was OSS/commercial (don't have the version number at
hand, the notebook is at home and switched off, sorry).
