Hmm, I am a bit confused. I figure you are speaking o the PA plugin
for libasound, right?

in pulse_close() we touch pcm->stream only when it is set.

But I might be mistaken what exactly you are referring to. Please try
to be more elaborate and include refeernces to code/line numbers
please!

Thank you,
