In which situation, exactly? Could you check whether it happens with use_system_timer=1 module option, too?
Or try the very latest alsa-driver-snapshot (not daily tarball). I fixed a deadlock issue in cttimer.c now.

Should I apply that patch to this snapshot?
Which patch do you mean? Just grab the latest alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/
Also, check alsa-driver/alsa-kernel/HEAD whether the commit 8dca419721d188bfee5f19fad45275856c619a5c ALSA: ctxfi - Fix deadlock with xfi-timer is included.

Tested the driver and it's fine so far. No craches with any application including Doom 3, which caused system lockups often with earlier versions of the driver.
I upgraded to this new snapshot and have the same click every 1.5 seconds on every single application with my x-fi.
I'm just confused as to why this didn't occur at all with the old driver, as in, was something strange introduced?
