Tilghman,

I manually typed in the channels/chan_alsa.c and it took the patch.
It also seems to have fixed the issue.

When might this get into the main stream release?
The comments say "not for tarball release".

It has been over a couple minutes and still working. So I think that was

Thanks so much for pointing me to this solution.
