Comment:

 I'm still trying to reproduce this. I expect that to take some time.

 I suspect that this may be related to running out of memory. When left
 running, Measure eats all memory. (bug #4471) It would be unsurprising to
 find that an out-of-memory error condition is handled badly when trying to
 allocate memory for DMA.

 Suspects: X doing video, kernel helping X do video, kernel doing audio
