Thanks for the pointers. I looked at it. Well snd_pcm_writei only returns
negative if there was an error and the negative is just the error code, so
you can't do any math with the error codes.

What is missing is some sort of writei failure handling. I copied most
from test/pcm.c from alsa-lib source. But I changed a continue; when
writei returns -EAGAIN to snd_pcm_wait(alsa_pcm, 10) otherwise the load
is at 100% and higher.

Please try this patch and report any problems.
