 Interrupt Handling
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-In rare but some cases, the interrupt isn't properly handled as
-default.  You would notice this by the DMA transfer error reported by
-ALSA PCM core, for example.  Using MSI might help in such a case.
-Pass `enable_msi=1` option for enabling MSI.
+HD-audio driver uses MSI as default (if available) since 2.6.33
+kernel as MSI works better on some machines, and in general, it's
+better for performance.  However, Nvidia controllers showed bad
+regressions with MSI (especially in a combination with AMD chipset),
+thus we disabled MSI for them.
+
+There seem also still other devices that don't work with MSI.  If you
+see a regression wrt the sound quality (stuttering, etc) or a lock-up
+in the recent kernel, try to pass `enable_msi=0` option to disable
+MSI.  If it works, you can add the known bad device to the blacklist
+defined in hda_intel.c.  In such a case, please report and give the
+patch back to the upstream developer.
