 When attempting to reproduce the test today in order to see if the
 ddb.commandonenter=call ddb_vgapost  sysctl worked, I initially failed
 to crash the system, with instead a locked dd process stuck in an
 endless uninterruptible loop (and unkillable even with SIGKILL), and
 stuck audio writer process.
 
 There were two differences from my other tests in this case:
 
 - Playing a mono rather than stereo sample
 - Using -d /dev/sound1 rather than
   relinking /dev/sound, /dev/audio, /dev/audioctl to sound1, audio1 and
   audioctl1, respectively.
 
 With the symlinks pointing to the 1 devices, and playing stereo
 content, I still could reproduce the panic, and fortunately ddb_vgapost
 works.
 
 Thanks,
