Accessing CD audio causes system freeze

Symptom: After reading CD audio for 15-30 minutes, my Linux system freezes,
requiring a power cycle to reboot.

This will happen using either CD player software like tcd, or during audio
data extraction with cdparanoia. Reading, say, 8 tracks one after the other
(extract, pause, extract) will not cause the problem; a flat 20 minute
extraction will. The problem is reproducible at will.

The freezes don't occur under 2.1.101; they do occur under 2.1.111, 2.1.116,
and 2.1.119.

I have had the freezes with only the IBM and Plextor devices attached, as
well as the current configuration.

Hardware: Tyan Tomcat IVD motherboard with 2 x P166MMX CPUs. ES1370 based
sound card. Plextor 12PleX CD-ROM, HP6020 CD-R. Buslogic BT950 SCSI card.
