After upgrading to sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.29 I'm experiencing that shutdown process hangs on /etc/init.d/alsasound (which comes media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.17), waiting forever for a sound module removal. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Owns a Toshiba Tecra M5 2. Install media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.17 and sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.29 3. Restart the computer with kernel from sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.29 and try shut it down Actual Results: The system hangs on shutdown, just running /etc/init.d/alsasound. It waits forever for a sound module removal (snd_hda_codec_idt or snd_hda_codec_si3054) which is in use. Expected Results: A clean shutdown. I have found a way to circumvent the problem, and it is using 'modprobe -r -w' instead of 'rmmod --wait'. The patch, plus some additional hardware and software info is in next attachments.

This bug seems like a duplicate of bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=253535 Is that right?
Try >=alsa-utils-1.0.19 version. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 253535 ***
