Thanks for the pointer Loïc (although at least my BR had nothing to do with 
Gnome).

Jonathan Matthew actually found my upstream BR and added a comment there, so 
I'd already seen his analysis there:
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3360

I added a comment myself that I discovered the issue has not completely 
disappeared for me, although its a lot less then when I originally reported 
it. I'm not sure if #437827 should be reopened or not; I'll leave that to 
the alsa-lib maintainers.

Cheers,
FJP
