ok, then the parameters of the calls in gnomemeeting are correct. This
verifies that the crash occurs in ALSA.

That's a result of the crash.

quoting Damien:
"Which proves nothing as OSS emu is not using the same params than ALSA.
ALSA is using the "plug" plugin with special params (frequency,
bits, ...)

snd_pcm_readi is the function called by GM. The rest is called by ALSA
itself. I suggest that bug is reported to the ALSA team."

I'm thus moving this bug to alsa-driver.
