OSS crashes

Hi
Sound broken in Gnome with OSS. Every sound hangs and sounds like it was a helicopter  flying around. Restarting OSS fixes if, but the problem is right back.

pacman.log:

Then booted with "irqpoll" option, dmesg:

osscore: Audio engine 1: Internal error in channel setup, err=-11008, ch=158258432
175518 fifo errors were detected
osscore: Output timed out (sync) on audio engine 1

osscore: Output timed out (sync) on audio engine 1

"irqpoll" seems to get rid of OSS crashes, but i.e java applications (various games) in firefox make the system terribly slow and using them (apps) impossible.
