[PlanetCCRMA] hsdp again redux

[derek at x-i.net]

mark,

thanks for the reply but i don't think that the routing is the problem. i have
hdspmixer, and have even run commandline amixer settings, but right now the
device itself is stuck. 

like here, when i try to start pd:
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:324:(snd_pcm_hw_hw_params) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS failed: D
evice or resource busy
snd_pcm_hw_params (input): Device or resource busy
ALSA: hw interface configured
pd: pcm.c:5032: snd_pcm_sw_params_current: Assertion `pcm->setup' failed.

and here, in dmesg:

ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:3875: initializing firmware upload
ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:950: cannot change between single- and
 double-speed mode (capture PID = 1713, playback PID = 1713)

other times, dmesg has shown ALSA complaining about not being able to get FIFO
for the card.

you are absolutely correct, however, when you say it is a real pain in the ass!
;-) i'm still scratchin' my head...
d.
