The problem here is with the integration of the Crystal Sound driver
in pcm with APM. After the card is powered down, it is dead (or worse)
until a re-boot initializes it. Waking up from suspend does not do it.

Since it's really in an unknown state, it can behave very strangely
after a suspend. Dead is probably the best result!

This is not the problem seen here.
