issues with snd_hda_intel

[Stephen H. Ward]

I have a few PCs all using this module.  When they shutdown they freeze when stopping ALSA and when a member of the audio group logs on to the GUI they authenticate successfully but no x session starts.  Also xfce-mcs-manager freezes and even root can not -KILL it, it remains till after reboot.

I can work around this issue by blacklisting the module or removing users from the audio group but that leaves them without sound which is less than ideal.  I guess I could also roll back to an older version of the module but that makes updates rather complicated.

Can anyone suggest a better fix?

Regards
Stephen Ward
