Please cc me on replies.

I'm running 2.5.40 with a via CLE motherboard with VT8235 southbridge
chip. The alsa driver for 8233 (sound/pci/via8233.c) seems to work fine,
meaning the sound output works as expected. I get lots of kernel messages
like below. A very simple program reproduces the problem:
#include <fcntl.h>

int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
int dsp;
	dsp=open("/dev/dsp",O_WRONLY);
	close(dsp);  // After this we get the kernel errors
}

The following repeats dozens and perhaps hundreds of times. I've worked out
from an objdump -d of vmlinux what the functions in the call stack are, and
their addresses.

All other sound related configs are unset.

I'm happy to run experiments of someone has any suggestions of what to try.

Thanks!
