Is there anything else I can provide to help getting this issue fixed? The main issue is that snd_pcm_area_copy() gets called with overlapping source and destination buffers, which triggers this assertion before a memcpy: http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=blob;f=src/pcm/pcm.c;h=0d0d093deb49f2db7d207b29b728df372cce84bc;hb=HEAD#l2762 This happens when the system is really loaded (CPU-wise). Do you think the problem is likely to come from an incorrect API usage from the application? Knowing this would significantly narrow down the search, because the problem could also come from within alsa itself. The callling code from the application is quite complex, see here: https://github.com/savoirfairelinux/ring-daemon/blob/master/src/media/audio/alsa/alsalayer.cpp In particular, the assertion is triggered by the call to snd_pcm_avail_update() at line 694 (see the stack trace below).
