it's been quite some time since I reported this bug. I don't see it 
anymore today, but however, I *never* experienced such delays in the 
boot sequence - neither with the bug nor without it. To be honest, I 
did not experience even the shortest delay which could be cased by the 
bug; I think it was just an error message and nothing else.

I remember that I also had the impression that the new upload of 
alsa-driver did *not* fix the issue for me. But since the described 
bug did not cause any real problems for me I just forgot about it and 
today I do not see this message anymore. However, I am tracking 
unstable and have updated some hundret other packages in the mean 
time, so I really can't tell when the issue disappeared on my system.

If you respond to error messages that have been reported to the Debian 
BTS, please do always keep the error in CC.

Cheers,
Fabian
