The cx2388x have an SRAM section with some important stuff in it as well
as the registers, I imagine the driver is setting up the SRAM at boot
and there is a problem after we go in and change it.

As Rob says in his previous post there was some code put in in an
attempt to fix this but it seemed to cause serious instabilities on some
peoples machines it did however work for me during testing so using that
code as a base is probably your best bet.

One other approach might be to programmatically disable the connexant
driver at the start of DScaler and reenable it at the end.

I was working on this on Friday and I expect it to be available on
Monday, but don't get your hopes up too high :)
