   Interesting... A couple of questions:

   - does this happen with _any_ wav file?

   - If you start the client, wait for it to stall, and _then_ strace
     nasd does it recover?


   strace can effect the behavior of a running application if what you
   are seeing is a race condition of some sort.

   Adding an osLogMsg() call to intervalProc() might provide a clue.
   If intervalProc is only called once, then there is a signal problem
   of some sort.
