[Paranoia] Zero Power (no volume) files produced when ide=nodma option is used to boot kernel

[Douglas A. Seifert]

Hello,

I am running release 9.8 of cdparanoia

# cdparanoia --version
cdparanoia III release 9.8 (March 23, 2001)
(C) 2001 Monty <monty at xiph.org> and Xiphophorus

Due to a bug in my mainboard chipset, I must boot the kernel using the 
ide=nodma flag.  However, when I do this, when I rip tracks from a cd, 
the resulting wav files have no volume (if that makes sense).  They seem 
to be the correct length, but if you play them, you get nothing but 
silence for the duration of the song.  If I boot without using the 
ide=nodma flag, ripping works normally.

I was wondering if this was a known bug or if there is something I can 
do to get ripping to work when booting using ide=nodma.  FYI, running 
custom 2.6.7 kernel with special EPIA patches on a EPIA M10000 mainboard.
