   I have had similar problems with this module for my Ensoniq
Soundcard. It seems to happen when a program that uses the sound does
not exit cleanly.

   The (bad) solution I use is rmmod es1370;insmod es1370. Normally this
works.

   I believe the right solution would be to try and debug this module.
Or maybe first check if it has changed in 2.4.
