[alsa-devel] PATCH: ESI Juli@ fails to set sample rate

This one-line patch fixes bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/441446 and is likely to fix bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525595 as well.

The problem for me is that if two streams are started immediately after one another (such as a playback and a recording stream, e g pulseaudio does that on startup), the call to hw_params fail with EBUSY. This patch makes the call succeed, and playback and recording works.

I do not have any other ice1724 soundcard than the ESI Juli@ so I don't know if/how this patch will affect them.
