Hi, I have a SB Audigy 2 ZS card. Playing midis with aplaymidi (Emu10k1 Wavetable) hard freezes the system. The problem seems to occur randomly: sometimes the freezing occurs after an hour, sometimes the freezing occurs after 5 mins. It doesn't seem to be specific to certain midi files. Pointers, anyone?
Below are some details. I'm willing to send dmesgs, kconfigs, etc, and do some testing if required. Reproduction recipe: 1) sfxload /usr/share/sounds/sf2/CT4MGM.SF2 (file from Creative CD) 2) aplaymidi -l Port Client name Port name 64:0 Audigy MPU-401 (UART) Audigy MPU-401 (UART) 64:32 Audigy MPU-401 (UART) Audigy MPU-401 #2 65:0 Emu10k1 WaveTable Emu10k1 Port 0 65:1 Emu10k1 WaveTable Emu10k1 Port 1 65:2 Emu10k1 WaveTable Emu10k1 Port 2 65:3 Emu10k1 WaveTable Emu10k1 Port 3 3) aplaymidi --port 65:0 <some_midi_file> 4) Repeat step 3 until freeze. lspci -v: 01:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04) Subsystem: Creative Labs SB Audigy 2 ZS (SB0350) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 58 I/O ports at b800 [size=64] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 uname -a: Linux boombox 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 #1 SMP Mon Jan 23 15:10:51 EET 2006 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux cat /proc/asound/version: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.10rc3 (Mon Nov 07 13:30:21 2005 UTC).
