@xtknight
your fix didn't work for me.

here's what happends:

W: pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting.
E: main.c: ANDY_FIX: buggy SIMD optimizations disabled.
E: alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write!
E: alsa-sink.c: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_emu10k1'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.
E: alsa-sink.c: We were woken up with POLLOUT set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or another value < min_avail.
Killed

and now I've got no sound as PA won't start anymore.
This is driving me nutz
