I had it once, and when it happened, syslog also has a message -
"Could not provide power to carbus slot".
Reinsertion of the card did nothing - all channels at maximum as well.
It was curied by disconnecting everything, cardbus from laptop,
multiface from cardbus, power from multiface and connecting again.
Also, seems linux does not always like cardbus insertion/removal.
Try to switch everything off, insert cardbus (connected to multiface),
power on multiface, and then power on laptop. This is the only
sequence that works always.
If I remove the CardBus card and reinsert it hdspmixer
returns to normal,
but sometimes the mouse pointer hangs erratically when I do this, but the
keyboard still works.
If I try to start jackd, it seems to succeed
initially, but then gets killed by
the watchdog:
Seems to be some strange things with interrupt handling.
Don't give up yet. Hope that helps.
