If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit a4f617eac9288b9a7a40cd257b62aa81094cd035 Author: Oswald Buddenhagen <oswald.buddenhagen@xxxxxx> Date: Sun Apr 28 11:37:15 2024 +0200 ALSA: emu10k1: fix E-MU dock initialization [ Upstream commit e8289fd3fa65d60cf04dab6f7845eda352c04ea6 ] A side effect of making the dock monitoring interrupt-driven was that we'd be very quick to program a freshly connected dock. However, for unclear reasons, the dock does not work when we do that - despite the FPGA netlist upload going just fine. We work around this by adding a delay before programming the dock; for safety, the value is several times as much as was determined empirically. Note that a badly timed dock hot-plug would have triggered the problem even before the referenced commit - but now it would happen 100% instead of about 3% of the time, thus making it impossible to work around by re-plugging.
