I have the exact same problem. Using floppy while playing sound can
reliably lock the machine after some time.

The hardware is the following:

- UP Pentium board
- SB Awe64 sound card
etc.

I've tried with both UP and SMP kernels, and can reproduce this bug
under both. The sound driver is built as a module.

I noticed it in 2.1.119, but I think this is an older problem (the
same thing happened some time ago on some older kernels, but I
thought that the problem was fixed).
