Package: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686
Version: 2.6.29-3

Hi,

On my x40, audio is now broken with 2.6.29-1-686.  I believe that this is a
Debian-specific regression, as a stock Linus kernel (tag v2.6.29) doesn't
have this problem.  Some apps (ie, ones using gstreamer) simply refuse to run;
others simply output white noise through the speakers/headphones.

The audio card is:

00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
(ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)

00:1f.5 0401: 8086:24c5 (rev 01)

On 2.6.29-1-686, I see the following in dmesg:

[   12.256024] intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 55438 usecs
[   12.256069] intel8x0: clocking to 48000
[   12.256433] Intel ICH Modem 0000:00:1f.6: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

[   12.360065] MC'97 1 converters and GPIO not ready (0xff00)

When attempting to play audio via gstreamer/totem:

** Message: Error: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.
gstalsasink.c(523): set_hwparams (): /GstPlayBin:play/GstBin:abin/GstBin:audiosinkbin/GstGConfAudioSink:audio-sink/GstBin:bin4/GstAutoAudioSink:autoaudiosink1/GstAlsaSink:autoaudiosink1-actual-sink-alsa:

With a stock Linus kernel, totem works, and dmesg shows:

converters and GPIO not ready (0xff00)

Note the lack of pcspeaker in the list of alsa devices; I suspect that the
problem is related to alsa attempting to pipe audio through the pcspeaker
hw device rather than the soundcard's normal device0.

Thanks, closing the bug, then.
 
Cheers,
