Specifically, the first time I ran it earlier today (fresh cvs update, make distclean, configure, make test), the test suite hung in testlinuxaudiodev. Running that test manually also produced a hang. These weren't killable, even with kill -9, C-, or C-z, and couldn't be gdb attached to.

So I rebooted and tried again. This time the tests don't hang but they do fail: test testlinuxaudiodev crashed -- linuxaudiodev.error: (0, 'Error')

Fred has a good solution for this:

chmod 0 /dev/audio
