Thanks.

Just a thought...this was reported as working better under the previous 
Ubuntu release, which run kernel 3.0 (and not too many changes in 
PulseAudio), i e, a regression. While I haven't done any serious kernel 
bisection of this, I know you've being doing some work with the 
snoop/non-snoop stuff lately, which I haven't followed closely. Do you 
think this can be related to why we're seeing broken position values 
when we're using the DMA position buffer map on some machines?
