Comment 1 James 2008-12-29 14:30:16 UTC

Still present with alsa-lib-1.0.18-6.rc3.fc10.x86_64.

Comment 2 James 2009-02-15 16:50:53 UTC

Also under:
kernel-2.6.29-0.20.rc3.git12.fc10.x86_64
alsa-lib-1.0.19-2.fc10.x86_64
alsa-lib-1.0.19-2.fc10.i386
alsa-utils-1.0.19-2.fc10.x86_64

Comment 3 James 2009-05-25 11:53:19 UTC

Persists under:
kernel-2.6.29.3-159.fc11.x86_64 w/ ALSA drivers 1.0.20.0.g75fc7.0.gfb064
alsa-utils-1.0.20-3.fc11.x86_64
alsa-lib-1.0.20-1.fc11.x86_64

Comment 4 James 2009-08-23 13:53:46 UTC

Still there with kernel-2.6.30.5-32.fc11.x86_64, alsa-lib-1.0.20-1.fc11.x86_64. Could be a driver issue, reassigning to kernel.

Comment 5 James 2009-11-26 09:30:38 UTC

Putting PulseAudio in the way mitigates this. The problem still exists, but is now somewhat moot so I doubt it will be fixed. Closing here, but keeping open in the ALSA tracker.
