This should be independent from the kernel version. It's an error that the controller couldn't get a response for the requested verb from the codec chip. Usually something wrong in the interrupt, and RIRB counter wasn't checked. Well, now another idea came to my mind. We can implement a polling mode for such a case.

Takashi ---------- I get that message every boot. I have addet alsasound to boot so it starts always when i start the system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
