Comment (by hmmsjan):

 Dear All,

 I tried the version for Fedora 11, (pulseaudio-0.9.14-2.fc10.i386), but no
 improvement. Tried some debugging with my limited knowledge, but the only
 thing I can find is a suddenly irregular, too high value of
 snd_pcm_avail() coming without
 any reason.

 pulseaudio -vvv 2>&1 | egrep '(pcm_mmap_begin|Underrun!|commit)'

 If I can help with further debugging, please send private mail, with my
 old soundcard the problem appears within a few minutes....
 Alsa-lib: alsa-lib-1.0.19-1.fc10.i686

 P.S. With tsched=0, sound is find despite of many "Alsa woke up...."
 message, but pulseaudio frequently crashes upon startup with:

 E: source.c: Assertion 'PA_SOURCE_IS_OPENED(s->thread_info.state)' failed
 at pulsecore/source.c:428, function pa_source_post(). Aborting.
