Please describe in detail the circumstances that create the problem. Are you experiencing buffer overruns or underruns? How many devices are sharing the IRQ? What are they? What happens when you cat a raw file to the device? Does this happen with VCHANs? Have you tried the patch I posted to -current under the heading "sound patch for pop & crackles"?
