Hi,
Inorder to get skype working with linux I have the following in .asoundrc for my normal userid.

With .32 there were no tracebacks (lockdep was enabled) and try #1 would work where I now get silence.
Ideas? Ed Tomlinson

It looks rather a bug of em28xx driver. Changing dev->lock with an individual one that is only for audio instance should fix the problem.
And, I believe this is no regression but a long-standing problem. It hits just occasionally by an app like pulseauiod which loves tight races.
I guess it depends on how you define a regression. From my POV it worked in all three cases on .32, its failing in .33-rc and in one case is oppsing. In my books thats a regression. There may have been races in .32 but they did not trigger lockdep and never oppsed.
Is the kernel config really identical? Is only the kernel replaced?
I haven't followed em28xx development, so it's possible that the bug came from that side, though. But, in the PCM core, there is no fundamental change that may trigger this bug during 2.6.33 development.
In any case, the real question is how do we fix the problem?
As I mentioned, replace the mutex in em28xx code.
I mean, something like below (totally untested).

Thanks for the patch. It helps in that it eliminates the opps but lockdep still triggers and aplay still fails. Here is the new traceback.
