The pb here is the non-blocking calls of the drain function: in my test case,
the first call to the drain function switches the pcm in draining state, but
the pcm will be switched to the setup state somewhen in between 2 drain function
calls! Naively, I was calling the drain function on a regular time basis to see
if the draining was finished, namely expecting 0 to be returned.
Then if I understood you well, the right way(tm) to use the drain function in
non-block mode, is to call only once the drain function, then inspect the state
of the pcm till it not anymore in the draining state.
Am I right? Or did I miss something again?
