Hi everybody,
I was only recently able to upgrade from 2.6.26 to 2.6.32 (long story). In so doing, I noticed infrequent occurrences of audio skipping, which I managed to bisect down to c87d973. It would appear that this commit also affects cmipci (CMI8738), albeit not as badly as it did for intel8x0. (I guess I'm the only person left on Earth still using a stand-alone PCI sound card, which is why this was never reported. <g>)
