When using Ring [1], an audio-video application, it sometimes crashes because of an assertion in libasound.so:
pcm.c:2758: snd_pcm_area_copy: Assertion `dst < src || dst >= src + bytes' failed.The complete upstream bug report is at [2]. The (not-so-useful) stack trace is the following:

The next time it crashes, I will have debug symbols in dring. I can also recompile alsa-lib with debug symbols, what is the best way to do that?
As promised, here is a new stack trace with debug symbols:

Is there anything in there that could explain the assertion failure? Perhaps a wrong API usage?
Thanks, Baptiste
Looking around, it seems other projects have run into the same issue:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ultrastardx-git/?comments=all#comment-435458 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zoom/#comment-544696 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2248373 https://github.com/js-platform/node-webrtc/issues/110 https://fedorahosted.org/fldigi/ticket/70The output of the alsa-info.sh script on my system is at [3]. What else can I provide to debug this issue further?
Thanks, Baptiste
