I can try that, but it takes a long time to build a new kernel on my old hardware.

The latest kernel that works is 3.6.0-0.rc2.git1.2.fc18. The earliest that doesn't work is 3.6.0-0.rc2.git2.1.fc18.
The report you sent doesn't look like it could be caused by e9ba389c5. It fixes a kernel Ooops. But as it is the only relevant patch in that area, it would be interesting if reverting it fixes anything.
Yep, agreed. If this revert kernel doesn't work, we're likely down to a git bisect, Bruno.
Btw - thanks a lot for testing -rc kernels, much appreciated!
Indeed!
Could you please try this patch on top of Takashi's? Thanks again!

From: Daniel Mack zonque@gmail.com Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:17:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: snd-usb: Fix URB cancellation at stream start
Commit e9ba389c5 ("ALSA: usb-audio: Fix scheduling-while-atomic bug in PCM capture stream") fixed a scheduling-while-atomic bug that happened when snd_usb_endpoint_start was called from the trigger callback, which is an atmic context. However, the patch breaks the idea of the endpoints reference counting, which is the reason why the driver has been refactored lately.
Revert that commit and let snd_usb_endpoint_start() take care of the URB cancellation again. As this function is called from both atomic and non-atomic context, add a flag to denote whether the function may sleep.

It'd be safer to protect the call of wait_clear_urbs() when can_sleep=0.
Right. New patch attached.
As the test result looks positive, I applied it for the next pull request. Thanks.
