[LAD] Snd problem ... ( ACCESS_TYPE )

Hi list.

I' m using alsa-lib v1.0.14rc2 on gentoo-linux (v2.6.20-gentoo-r8)
my soundcard is RME Hammerfall HDSP9632 (snd-hdsp driver)
i have been using it for a while - all fine
i only run a few applications for my sound experiments.
one of those is Snd (from CCRMA), it was okay until i have done a few
updates lately - kernel from 2.6.17 to 2.6.20 and alsa-lib as well.
i'm not sure about either of these but i check Snd src-tree and the
mailing list - nothing was changed ..

the error msg that i get is:

i had tried to modify audio.c in Snd's tree to use both ACCESS types
given above , but it didn't help - showed device is busy error instead.
i'm only studying C, so can't be sure ..

anyway here is a problem which i could not solve yet and haven't seen
anyone helpful around #alsa, neither i could google anything out.

for a ref.: Cmdist mailing list Cmdist@email-addr-hidden http://ccrma-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist
and our discussion is here:

could anyone have a look at this at somepoint, please .
