Now that you mention it, once, but only once, I lost the audio device with my PAS-16 and the current sound driver: vat continued working but writes to /dev/audio were failing. I was able to recover only with a reboot. Amancio speculated that the problem may be in the dma handling routines. With vat in half-duplex mode there's a slight problem with sound samples overlapping very periodically -- only briefly, mind you. I it happens when the sound source is continuous and the playback buffer builds up... if vat is able to detect successfully the end of a talk spurt then the playback spurt is reset and no overlapping sound is heard. I am sure you can explain this better... -- Denis
