Thanks, that is what I wanted although it's not enough to figure out the
problem - but Sven provided the missing info (thanks!).

If you don't mind, could you try the following workarounds?

The first is to drop the last softdep from oss-compat.conf (v3):

	softdep snd-pcm post: snd-pcm-oss
	softdep snd-mixer post: snd-mixer-oss

That's the workaround provided by Sven, so it should work just fine.

The second is to add a variant of the last softdep:

	softdep snd-pcm post: snd-pcm-oss
	softdep snd-mixer post: snd-mixer-oss
	softdep snd-seq post: snd-seq-oss

This will help determine whether the initialisation lock-up is related to
loading snd-seq-midi... (Incidentally, the Debian kernels don't ship
snd-seq-oss.)

Thanks,

Stephen
