[ATrpms-users] perhaps a problem with mythfrontend?

[David Asher]

I am/was getting this too.  After researching for a while it turns out 
it is a problem with the alsa drivers.  alsa 1.0.11rc3 are the first 
drivers which supposedly fix it.  I've now got 2.6.16 kernel w/1.0.11rc4 
alsa (from testing) and I haven't seen it since.
