Next-20150310 works OK, next-20150324 has the bug.
Dell Latitude E6530 laptop, lspci tells me:
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) Subsystem: Dell Device 0535 ... Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
Symptoms: Audio works perfectly at boot, and for some amount of time after. But somewhere around 6-8 hours of uptime, it gets into a strange state where I'll get no audio... and then it will cut in for all of 2 seconds or so (fairly consistent, that part), and then cut back out for anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute, then another 2 seconds of sound.. lather rinse repeat.
Before I start the thankless task of bisecting this (which means I'll be able to do only 1, *maybe* 2 steps a day), does this ring any bells?
Try for-next branch of sound git tree git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git
Now I merged fixes that might be relevant with the runtime PM on some codecs, so it might work better.
In anyway, please give alsa-info.sh outputs at good and bad-working states.
thanks,
Takashi
