Current bug? "file /var/lib/alsa/asound.state lock error: No such file or directory"

I am testing updating 14.2 to Current on a Lenovo T400. With rc.alsa executable I always see the following error:

Code:file /var/lib/alsa/asound.state lock error: No such file or directoryBoth the directory and file exist. 0755 permissions and root:root ownership.

Using alsactl -L avoids the errors.

Both aplay and speaker-test function fine.

Booting with rc.alsa not executable also works.

What is causing the error?

Is rc.alsa needed any more?

Thanks. :)latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=aUgXRQIRezk:IOW2Be992m4:F7zBnMy latest?i=aUgXRQIRezk:IOW2Be992m4:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=aUgXRQIRezk:IOW2Be992m4:gIN9vFwaUgXRQIRezk
