Subject: [linux-audio-dev] ALSA + lowlatency hang (?)

I'm running ALSA 0.4.1c on a 2.2.10 + lowlatency N6B kernel (Mingo's
patch), and I have managed to freeze my system twice. (Nothing in
the logs, magic SysRq is dead etc...)
Both times, I'd been using the OSS emulation (audio+MIDI) for hours
(many open/close cycles) with no problems, and then, from what I can
see, the system freezes somewhere around when closing the devices.
The problem here is that I can't find out how to repeat it, so it's a
bit hard to track it down. I suspect that it might alternatively be
related to the kernel + ppp, as the last freeze was shortly after
being thrown off-line. Bad luck, however - I stopped an audio
program just about that time as well, so I can't really tell, and
my "statistics database" is two entries...
I'll try and find a way to repeat it and track it down; I was just
wondering if this seems familiar to anyone.

PS. BTW, now, I consider this a serious problem that must be resolved
- while this kind of thing is to be *expected* from a Windoze box...
Different world. Not going back there - too much for my nerves.
