Sorry, I should've been more clear! 

a) Envy hangs quite randomly, sometimes I can play audio several hours before 
the first seize. But after the first time it usually takes only 10-30min it 
hangs again, so the frequency increases but it seems random.

b) I don't use suspend or hibernate/resume.

c) I have used power management settings (apm -A and apm -H) and they haven't 
had an effect on the problem.

d) The hangs occur also with the SP-kernel.
