Comment 33 for bug 53216

I've been encountering this bug since dapper, I'd assumed it was a bug in the kernel's networking due to the lots of weird packets skype sends to try to get around nat, but these comments make it seem likely that it's audio related.

Is there a way to get copious alsa debugging to see what skype is sending to the audio drivers?

I've been seeing this on a compaq laptop and an hp laptop, both using snd_ac97_codec and snd_intel8x0, but obviously the amd machines seeing this aren't using intel8x0.
