Exact same hardware as before? It does look like a kernel problem in the
mainline kernel.

I used one briefly to test it in my laptop. I was running 64x2 with no
problems, but the test was not very long.
The only thing that jumps at me from the data in the email are the
latencies of the pci bus cards. The pci cards that have them are set to
128 and the hdsp is set to 255. Is that because you tried to optimize
them?
I normally see latencies on the order of 64... If you lower them, does
it make any difference?
