actually that was for asterisk, but should help both.
This said, my changes affected both the infrastructure code,
and one specific driver (ich) which did have issues
(miscomputing the block size in certain cases) causing
similar problems (choppy sound etc.).

Given the nature of the drivers, with code often cut&pasted
from one to the other, it is likely that there are similar
issues elsewhere.

Which reminds me... was it you, Mat, who promised to have a
look at the code and possibly commit to current ? :)

	cheers
