[alsa-devel] Clicking and stuttering audio when playing two or more files

I have audio output perfectly from my second CS42448 CODEC now, but only when one file is playing. When I attempt to play two files, one or both of the files play with clicking and stuttering. I am also noticing that the PCM prepare operation is occurring more than once. What could be causing this problem?

HW settings are: buffer_bytes_max = 32768 period_bytes min = 8 max = 32768 periods min = 1 max = 4096

PCM runtime is reporting: frames per period = 1114 periods = 2 total frames = 2228 frame bytes = 8

Thank you, Adam
