Beagleboard Sound Driver on Angstrom Doesn't Work Reliably

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run Mplayer, XMMS, Vlc, or any other sound application.
2. Wait.
3. Within an hour or so, the system will hang.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected the music to play indefinitely.  Dependent on which kernel you use:

With linux-omap2:  Runs for a while, then gets endless stream of IRQ-33's.

With linux-omap:  Runs for a while, then hangs the system with the sound in
a one-second tape loop of whatever the last item played was.

Thanks very much.

Best regards,
Geof

Angstrom issues really don't belong here.  They should be filed against OE at
http://bugs.openembedded.org/ if they are OE-related.  If they are validation 
kernel,
board, or website related, they should be filed here.
