Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists.

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Opera/7.21 (X11; Linux i686; U) [en] Description of problem: This bug is most often triggered by Opera. Once in a while a sound being played stops with a click and sound becomes unavailable (/dev/dsp in use). lsof doesn't show any process using /dev/dsp, killing mostly everything doesn't bring sound back. Trying ogg123 from the console showed me the message: Assertion failed: chan->is_active==sg_active(chan->iobase),via82cxxx_audio.c, via_chan_maybe_start, line=1389 The machine has to be rebooted to get the sound back (the modules are reported as in use, can't rmmod them). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.20-20.7 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run Opera with sound played for incoming mail and/or finished transfers for some time. 2. Be unlucky - the bug appears at random, about 3-5 times a week under heavy use. 3. Actual Results: Sound stops, the device is locked until reboot Expected Results: Normal playback. If not possible (a bug in Opera?), closing the program should restore sound, the module shouldn't lock up, a reboot should not be necessary. Additional info: I think it might be caused by Opera trying to play a second sound while the first one is still playing, but it's just a feeling. Opera runs as a normal user and should not be able to disrupt any part of the kernel. Athlon MP1600+, VIA KT133, sound from VT82C686 AC97
