Ah, I read this, but that's probably just if two threads would share one handle:

  "The use of returned handles must be serialized in the application using own locking scheme."

One more question: You said snd_pcm_wait() was real time safe. I guess that's also true for similar functions, like snd_pcm_htimestamp(), snd_pcm_readi(), ..., correct?
