As I don't know much about the sound drivers, I hope debug output will
be helpful to see what's really going wrong here. Beware, the
compression ratio is very high. :)

The output is from gnome startup till the gnome logout (just a few
seconds, as I expected lots of output). Notice that gnome produces
sound at the startup and also at logout, so the relevant part is
somewhere in the middle of the output. DEBUG_LEVEL was set at 4.
