In the case of ALSA, it's the application's choice whether an underrun
should stop the stream.  I don't know which application you were using,
but in the case of Jack, it was decided that it would be better to
have the stream stopped so that the xrun can be detected and reported
instead of having an unexplained (or worse, undetected) stutter.
