Public bug reported:

After dist-upgrading to intrepid, Ubuntu appears to hang when shutting
down. I have traced this down to the ALSA shutdown script taking more
than a minute (!) to save sound card state. More specifically:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ time amixer -c0 -q set Mic 0% mute

real    0m8.061s
user    0m0.003s
sys     0m0.012s

This is reproducable only in single-user mode. When I run the amixer
command when logged in into X (I can even run the command from a
console, as long as X is running), the same command takes only a few
milliseconds as it should. I will attach an strace log from above call.
Of interest is the following line:

 4.013297 ioctl(5, FIONREAD, [37])  = 0

which occurs twice in the script. It seems to be expecting data from a
network socket, but I can't figure out why.


On a side note: why is amixer doing dns resolution, or any network activity for 
that matter?
