Hmm. Are you still getting underruns on -nightly?

I basically tried this same thing (+ a bunch of other tweaks to the
audio enable sequence) when I was hunting the remaining underruns on
my ILK, but in the end audio was a red herring. So I never found
any real benefit from extra vblank waits in the audio enable sequence.
They did appear to help sometimes, but with a enough repetitions it
still failed.
