Re: USB audio garbled over time

Sure enough, looks like it pauses.

Before:

name=uaudio0
mode=play,record
pause=0
active=1
nblks=16
blksz=480
rate=48000
encoding=s16le
play.channels=2
play.bytes=839040
play.errors=0
record.channels=2
record.bytes=839040
record.errors=0

After:

name=uaudio0
mode=play,record
pause=0
active=1
nblks=16
blksz=480
rate=48000
encoding=s16le
play.channels=2
play.bytes=1827840
play.errors=0
record.channels=2
record.bytes=1827840
record.errors=0

How do you unpause it then?
