ALSA is built from source. 0.9.0rc7. The really weird thing is that
just for kicks I installed mythtv CVS from scratch on my work Linux box,
and I get the SAME behavior with mythmusic! The GUI freezes up every
30-45 seconds. Totally different machine with a different sound card.
Again, RedHat 8.0, alsa-driver-0.9.0rc7 (compiled for the correct card),
and mythmusic CVS.
Having this happen on three machines now has me a bit concerned ;).
Unfortunately, on the first machine on which I saw this behavior the
problem went away, and I thought it went away just when I changed from
the 0.7 myth release to building from CVS. But something else must have
changed to fix the issue.
Everything else is working perfectly, though! ;)
