It strongly recommend not to use 0.9.11. Use 0.9.10 (last
pre-glitch-free version) or 0.9.15.

The releases 0.9.11 to 0.9.13 were quite buggy. 

It should be possible to make PA build with a private version of lt
2.2 with minimal configure.ac hackery.

That smells a lot like a driver problem. And it doesn't have to say
much if 'aplay' or a similar application works with that chip, because
PA use a lot more functionality from the audio drivers than 'aplay'
uses and hence will trip over bugs much more likely than 'aplay' does.
