[PD] Upon resume after suspend: ALSA output error (snd_pcm_close): File descriptor in bad state

Hi list,

I suspended my Debian computer with Pd running and upon resuming Pd
threw a lot of these into its console
	ALSA output error (snd_pcm_close): File descriptor in bad state
and posted on the terminal from which I started Pd
	read other error -86
I had to toggle DSP to get it back to work.

I understand that it is not an easy task to have a realtime audio
program resume operation after the O.S. has suspended the computer, but
I am wondering if it is a problem inherent to Pd?

Thanks!
Peter
