Can we turn the sound powersave options back on in rawhide?

(thanks to Thorsten Leemhuis for those pointers) it's no longer "experimental...."

It may no longer be functionally experimental, but does it still lead to popping on some hardware when the codec's powered up?

Sure, that's the big question. But isn't now the best time to simply give it a try in rawhide as F11 is still a few month away?

Is there any reason to think that it has been fixed? If nothing has changed no reason to blow out someone's amp just for testing. :)
I asked only because I was trying to make my mythbox power-efficient and noticed it was off; I can let the folks who've actually followed the issue make the change if appropriate, but wanted to bring it up at least.
Thanks, -Eric

I'm not that close to alsa development to tell; maybe someone else on this list is?
But I tend to think the "it mature now" statements in the two commits that removed the experimental bit in 2.6.29-rc are a strong hint that they improved it after we tried it (which was soon after it was merged).

And I would like the power management features on my machines to just work automatically.
