Hm, that's werid. Basically non-blocking mode matters only at opening the PCM device (whether the stream is busy or not), and it shouldn't influence on the running stream. Maybe it's a timing issue, like other tests failed sometimes...
Did you already try using non-cached buffer in addition to the ATI-SB snooping?

Already tried all workarounds possible, no luck. Only with my desktop with this particular motherboard. No issues in Windows, the sound recorded in there is distorted and has some static and robotic tone on high-pitch. alsa-info on the attachments To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1801540/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
