To my knowledge, our ASC driver drive ASC, which has 2048
bytes buffer, in compatible mode of old Sony Sound Chip
which had 370 bytes buffer. I think EASC has something
trouble with the compatible mode so our ASC driver can't
handle its interrupts correctly.

No advances so far. We discussed we should use MI audio
driver to improve our ASC driver with interrupt handling.
After that, due to some disk trouble, I had to reinstall
whole my environment, and it's not completed. I hope I'll
have some progress in this weekend.
