Yep thats the 7th person to point that out.
The two sets of folks seem to be
1. VIA VPx motherboards - apparently hardware is crap ? 2. A few SMP machines (non VIA chipset)
The second case is weird and I still don't understand its cause. Its as if the DMA functions for a given channel is getting messed with twice at the same time or something
Anyway. Folks with VIA VPx chipsets. Can you try defining
#define HAVE_REALLY_SLOW_DMA_CONTROLLER
in include/asm/dma.h
and rebuilding the kernel to see if it changes behaviour. If not I guess pci quirks needs to set a "paticularly stupid ISA dma" flag for the sound and other modules to pick up on.
