Okay. The thing that "fixed" Tyson was disabling mmap from the driver:

Weird - I was sure the mmap problem has been fixed, but obviously
the patch didn't go in...

Andrew, could you please queue this up for 2.6.26?

I have applied the patch against the 2.6.24.3 kernel, and now have working sound on the newer PWS600au with mmap enabled alsa. Verified through the on board ESS1887 and via the M-Audio Revolution 7.1 sound card. (Ran out of time to also try the C-Media sound card. Also ran out of time to try it out on the other alphas I have.)

The problem with the repeated sound bits playing at the end of certain sound files via the ESS1887 remains.

Michael.
