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.
