OS:
Linux Mint 17 XFCE 64-bit

Also happens on:
Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon 64-bit, Xubuntu 14.04.1 64-bit, Fedora 20.1 64-bit, Xubuntu 14.10 64-bit

Repro:
Just play some media, e.g. Internet radio using Quodlibet.

Results:
The following is being printed to kern.log over and over again:
kernel: [ 988.235415] ata5: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4000000 action 0xe frozen

kernel: [ 999.978013] ata5: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310)
kernel: [ 999.993952] ata5: EH complete

Expected results:
No SATA errors happening because of media playback.

Frequency:
Few times a second.

Reproducibility:
100%

Additional notes:
The problem does not occur neither on Linux Mint 15 64-bit nor on Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit.
