do you mean 27 instead of 29 since the echo only occur when the value
contain XRUN_DEBUG_JIFFIESCHECK  bit  ?

aplay -Dplughw:0,0 and mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=0,0 work normal

except when the value of xrun_debug contain XRUN_DEBUG_JIFFIESCHECK  bit  (
same result for the three  virtual box audio backend oss, pulseaudio and
alsa )
