#466: module-suspend-on-idle doesn't play nice with module-oss
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  jmcneill      |       Owner:  lennart
     Type:  defect        |      Status:  new    
 Priority:  normal        |   Milestone:         
Component:  module-oss-*  |    Severity:  normal 
 Keywords:  netbsd oss    |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 When module-suspend-on-idle is loaded, pulseaudio aborts with the
 following assertion on unsuspend:

 module-oss.c: Assertion 'u->mixer_devmask & ((1 << 0)|(1 << 4))' failed at
 modules/module-oss.c:805, function sink_get_volume(). Aborting.

 I can't see any other places in the module that would set or clear
 mixer_devmask other than in pa!__init, and with module-suspend-on-idle
 disabled everything works fine.

 I found the following reference to the same issue a while back:
   https://tango.0pointer.de/pipermail/pulseaudio-
 discuss/2008-July/002111.html

 However, the suggestion to use the ALSA module is not an option for
 NetBSD. We use module-hal-detect to discover audio devices, and since the
 HAL spec doesn't have provisions for our native audio API (something
 similar to Sun audio) the OSS compatibility layer is used for PA.
