Well, I've just reproduced the error with my sound card and amp (which works fine with -nobuffer; .wav's play and record fine as well with mxv). It plays roughly 1/2 second when it just stops and the isa_dma_acquire message pops up. This definitely wasn't happening with the Nov. 5 snap. I'll try the latest sources and post the results (which won't be in until at least tomorrow ;), but I'm positive that my soundblaster 16 uses irq 5, low DMA 1, high DMA 5, and lives at address 0x220.
