Tonight I discovered that sound is no longer working because of:
"couldn't allocate DMA buffer" (or similar, comes from soundcard.c)

I have an AWE32 card and use the unofficial AWE-driver (v4.0).
Sound was working in 2.0.30 (but with AWE pre-v4.0#5, i need to check
this with v4.0). It is broken since pre-patch-2.0.31-2. It is working
in 2.1.43.

I think we should fix this, as it is as bad to have a 2.0.31 with sound
not working as 2.0.30 with isdn not working :(
