I can't tell what's happening with daphile. Maybe it's simply a matter of how much network activity or disk activity or graphics activity is going on at the time. (Of course, storing a usbmon trace creates some disk activity of its own...)

There is no way to reconfigure the PCI bus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1136110 Title: USB Audio Codec choppy playback To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1136110/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
