I am facing problem related to DMA interrupt not getting triggered some times(out of 5 times one time it is happening) causing application to wait for the buffers(hw_ptr = 0) and no sound because of this. I am using samsung soc with DMA controller PL080.I tried increasing periods_min to 4 but still no result. I am using 2.6.29 kernel version.

As I already suggested you on direct online chat, your best bet is to either switch to newer kernel or backport latest dma driver(if ur customer demands 2.6.29). Although it might just be ur test application/method.
