In this case I am only using kernel 2.6.33.5-rt23-amd64, alsa lib 1.0.2, but 2.6.34 does it too. I bring up firefox. Web pages attempt to play sound. The kernel begans doing: [ 2879.766331] allocate_pipes: ch=1 int=2 [ 2879.766332] allocate_pipes: channel already open [ 2879.766333] allocate_pipes(1) err=-11 [ 2879.766334] pcm_hw_freed [ 2.821190] pcm_analog_out_open cs=0 oc=2 r=44100 [ 2879.821266] allocate_pipes: ch=1 int=2 [ 2879.821267] allocate_pipes: channel already open ,infinitely. The system is unusable at this point and I have to Alt-SysRq-k to get back in. Let me know what other information to provide.
