IT WORKED! I fixed it in this way:
mpu401_uart.c:229
if (mpu->hardware != MPU401_HW_TRID4DWAVE
&& mpu->hardware != MPU401_HW_ICE1712) {
mpu->write(mpu, 0x00, MPU401D(mpu));
/*snd_mpu401_uart_clear_rx(mpu);*/
}
I don't know if this will work on non-AMD machines and if it will
work on all ice1712 machines... Next week I can test it with
different M-Audio cards on single-processor machines (Pentium and AMD).
Thanks a lot!
