Not sure if a bug report was filed or not. I just went and looked and
found the final bug report I filed on the HDSP 9652 before I yanked it
from my Linux box. It was bug #21. These click and pop problems were
actually much earlier, so possibly that was before the bug system was
put in place. I do remember that I, and others, were asking for a bug
reporting system to be put in place and it eventually was. 

In response to the problems I and others were having with the HDSP 9652
I gave Thomas Charbonnel log in rights, as well as root password, and he
was doing development and debug on my machine at that time. He was the
main developer on the HDSP drivers at that time but actually didn't have
the HDSP 9652 to work with directly. He made changes looking at this and
other problems. I viewed the output of hdspconf and hdspmixer to see the
resutls and report back. It was a very intereactive process that
produced some good results - hdspmixer working far better and more
compatibly with the RME versions.

Fially, as I stated earlier, I think this problem was specific to the
use of the AI-3 since it ran at 48K. This may or may not be true, but it
was my thought at the time.

I did find a few notes in Google. Read them if you're interested.
