A good point.  Actually the culprit is that we declare dmix as if it's
supporting the resume properly.  Even if the resume works in the
slave, dmix itself can't guarantee the proper resume.  So, we should
rather drop the whole resume stuff from dmix & co.

Below is the patch against to the current git tree.  Give it a try.


thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] pcm: Remove resume support from dmix & co

PCM dmix and other plugins inherit the resume behavior from the slave
PCM.  However, the resume on dmix can't work reliably even if the
slave PCM may do resume.  The running state of each dmix stream is
individual and may be PREPARED or RUN_PENDING while the slave PCM is
already in RUNNING.  And, when the slave PCM is resumed, the whole
samples that have been already mapped are also played back, even if
the corresponding dmix stream is still in SUSPENDED.  Such
inconsistencies can't be avoided as long as we manage each stream
individually.

That said, dmix & co can't provide the proper resume support "by
design".  For aligning with it, we should drop the whole resume code
and clear the PCM SND_PCM_INFO_RESUME flag.
