The following assertion:
relay: pcm_plugin.c:570: snd_pcm_plugin_status: Assertion `status->appl_ptr == *pcm->appl.ptr' failed.
It bisects to 28cc099, the introduction of that assertion.
#4 0x00007ffff7d0dd03 in snd_pcm_plugin_status (pcm=0x633560,
status=0x7fffffffe1e0) at pcm_plugin.c:570
570 assert(status->appl_ptr == *pcm->appl.ptr);
(gdb) print status->appl_ptr
$1 = 0
(gdb) print pcm->appl.ptr
$2 = (volatile snd_pcm_uframes_t *) 0x6334f8
(gdb) print *pcm->appl.ptr
$3 = 47936
The calling code is single threaded on a dmix device, with these
operations in order:
snd_pcm_avail_update();
snd_pcm_status();
snd_pcm_mmap_begin();
Commenting out the assertion leaves me with a credible result from the
function as it did previously; snd_pcm_status_get_delay() == 64.

Subject: [PATCH] pcm: plugin - optimize sync in snd_pcm_plugin_status()
Do hw_ptr sync only once after the status call. This avoids
double update.
Also, the application pointer must not change when
the status is called. Add assert() call for this condition.
