Created attachment 39202 [details] Render test on Audigy 2 (default, multi-channel w/PA, multi-channel w/o PA)
A 5 second long cracking. ... Then short clicks ~10-15 seconds apart.
Those creative sound cards need to use "front" , "surround40", ..for multi-channels
The so call "multichannel" playback device of snd-emu10k1 is a 16 channels playback device
Any error message when running "aplay -Dfront any.wav" and "arecord -Dfront -f CD foo.wav" at two terminals at the same time since there are hooks with locks for "front" device"
This is why Pulseaudio server hangs since it use "front" device for playback and capture
