Comment 1 Takashi Iwai 2010-11-30 08:26:05 UTC 
Is this a regression from the old kernel?
Comment 2 cthx 2010-11-30 19:39:45 UTC 
I think it's a regression, but not sure.
I've downgraded kernel to 2.6.25.8, testing now.

First I have capture problems,after that I see dmesg messages.
This problem appears randomly, after reboot capture is ok.
Comment 3 cthx 2010-11-30 19:55:48 UTC 
Seems problem exist for 2.6.35.8 too (25 was typo :))
capture randomly stops, but without dmesg messages.
Comment 4 cthx 2010-11-30 21:25:05 UTC 
steps to reproduce: i have open audio player (amarok)
and open and close mumble or audacity :).
after some steps (opening-closing apps with audio capturing) capture is down.
Comment 5 Takashi Iwai 2013-11-19 09:01:57 UTC 
Does the problem still happen with 3.12 kernel?
Comment 6 cthx 2013-11-19 10:17:37 UTC 
I've forgotten about this bug :) Now I have another (intel-based) laptop and here seems this bug not appears (at least with 3.12). I can test later my old laptop ( ~1.5 weeks later ).
Comment 7 Takashi Iwai 2013-11-29 07:54:50 UTC 
OK, if it's still a problem, please give alsa-info.sh output.  Run it with --no-upload option, and attach the output to bugzilla.
Comment 8 cthx 2013-12-27 22:01:19 UTC 
Sorry for the late answer, I've tested my old laptop recently with 3.12.6 kernel and I couldn't reproduce this bug. I think the bug can be closed :)
