Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: alsa-base

When I listen to music using for example Amarok (xine engine), and I do
something processor intensive (such as scrolling some complex web page
in Firefox), the sound starts to break (I hear pops and clicks -
probably because of empty buffers in alsa), and if it continues for a
long time (longer than a minute or so), the sound locks (repeats the
same buffer) until I stop all applications using alsa. It happens with
any application using ALSA with or without dmix.

I'm using:
alsa-base and alsautils 1.0.14.1 (from beta release)
linux 2.6.22-12-generic

Sound card is:
00:0f.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 02) - 1274:5880
And my motherboard is with VIA KT133 chipset.

It is happening only in Gutsy with this alsa version.
In Feisty, with updated kernel 2.6.22-11-generic and alsa 1.0.13 everything 
works like it should.
