>Description:
	Running an Acer TravelMate 512TE.
        sound output is only _sometimes_ possible.

        The TravelMate uses an Acer M5451 sound chip. however if I kldload
        snd_t4dwave.ko I sometimes get the message:
         pcm0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead
        
        I highly assume this is because of IRQ sharing between the soundcard
        and the graphics card (both are on IRQ 10), grfx card is:
         ATI Rage Mobility Pro

        On other occasions sound will work - but only for the first time.
        After opening the device and closing it the next open will result 
        in no sound output.

        I did a comparison: 5.0-current works with this laptop. sound plays
        perfectly and every time.

        But rest assured, commercial OSS is far behind in supporting that
        irq-sharing monster :]

>How-To-Repeat:
	share interrupts with sound card.
        kldload t4dwave for an M5451 chip based sound card
        try to play some wav/mp3
        observe kern logs

>Fix:

	no fix known.
