Hello
Sorry I dont have any suggestions for you.
I never had the sound stop, but I really only used rhythmbox to play
local flac files. that worked well for me.
never tried multiple sources either.

during my initial investigation newer version of the alsa kernel driver
worked with this mobo. hopefully the ubuntu team will update the asla
kernel driver during the next development cycle. I oughta check to see
if this has been done :)
