summary:

fixes a flaw on recovering from alsa reported errors in delay() of the
alsa audio module

description:

i noticed some alsa dropouts (loosing audio) while hunting a bug which
has been related to a broken streaming server. this resulted in buffers
running empty and therefore showed some issues in the alsa driver not
correctly applying some recovery procedures provided by alsa itself
(snd_pcm_recover() and friends).

cheers,

frank
