[alsa-devel] 2.6.34-rc1: regression: ^Z no longer stops sound
 
            Hi!
In 2.6.33, hitting ^Z stopped mpg123 in a way you'd expect (both on thinkpad and geode notebook).
On 2.6.34-rc1, hit ^Z and sound starts looping. Pavel

Is it an OSS app using the kernel OSS emulation or another backend?
The possible cause is the rewrite of PCM hwptr updater. Jaroslav, could you take a look?
thanks,
Takashi

OSS kernel emulation, yes. ... at least I think I'm using it.

I cannot reproduce this problem here. Could you post the contents of /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/status file when you stop the audio process and looping starts?
Thanks, Jaroslav
