It turns out that the buffer size you get, is not evenly devided by period size. 18645 % 4661 = 1. That (wrongly) triggers the warning. This may very well be an alsa bug, or may not, but the code in the driver is handling that properly, so there is no need for such a verbose warning.
The attached patch shuts down the warning. Takashi, could you please apply?
