And now I wonder whether the problem is still present with the latest
code.  There was a (kind of) regression in this regard when we
introduced the fine-grained hardware timestamping, but it should have
been addressed by the commit 20e3f985bb875fea4f86b04eba4b6cc29bfd6b71
    ALSA: pcm: update tstamp only if audio_tstamp changed

Could you double-check whether the tstamp field gets still updated
even if no hwptr (and delay) is changed?


thanks,

Takashi
