alsa issue

Does anyone has an idea what this dmesg might mean? "[ 554.236469] cs5535audio 0000:00:0f.3: setting latency timer to 64 [ 554.243623] Failure reading codec reg 0x7e,Last value=0x7e805368 [ 554.249827] Failure reading codec reg 0x7e,Last value=0x7e805368" This shows up during alsaconf in Puppy linux on the XO-1, and although alsaconf finishes without errors there is no sound or card detected by the mixer at the end. More info is available but I'm afraid I might be a bit off the focus of this list. So if this rings a bell pls let me know, if not...
