Public bug reported: Occasionally when beginning playback of a file in Rhythmbox, the CPU spikes to 100% and either shows stuttering progress on the the playback counter with no audio, or plays several seconds of distortion before the CPU drops down and the music begins playing. Does not happen consistently with the same files, and attempting to play the same file back to back can have different results. I am using S/PDIF out to a receiver.
