USB high speed uses 8000 frames per second, so one packet contains
about 5.5 (44100/8000) samples. It's obvious that the USB packets are
exchanged somehow.

Please try the patch below, or download the new ua101.c from
<http://www.alsa-project.org/~clemens/ua101.c>. This will log the
sequence in which the first 50 USB packets are received, but it won't
fix anything.

Since the kernel crash happens when resetting the capture interface,
there is a possibilty that these bugs are related, probably due to some
corruption of the EHCI data structures. Trying a 2.6.33 kernel might
help, although I don't know of any change that could affect this.
