Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: Unknown Distribution: Gentoo Linux Hardware Environment: Custom built, x86 Software Environment: Gnome environment Problem Description: Occasionally, sound will stop working. A "ps ax -H" will lock as if its trying to resolve something that it can't. I've noticed that a particular progam -- Gnome's tetris clone -- causes this to happen far more often that normal (when it has sound enabled), but this lock is not specific to gnome's tetris. Steps to reproduce: Run a program that plays a good deal of short sound files.
