Is it a pattern where the first time takes long, and than it happens faster each time? If so, I'd start suspecting heat. > I have tried an other soundcard, but that did not help. I see. That certainly points to a system global problem and not so much one with alsa specifically. Is the slot/card on a shared IRQ with something else, and if so, are you able to correlate some action on/from that other device and your sound crapping out? > Synaptic told me that alsa-base is version 1.0.13-3 > > The system is a Intel dual-core thing, if that does matter. > > How do I debug this? What do you need to know to help me here? Well, that sounds modern. First thing I'd _always_ try is "pci=routeirq" and/or "pci=noacpi" but not sure if that's actually still an option these days... And putting the soundcard in a different slot? If this is not helpful, you're probably best of adding linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to the CC.
