Please, when I try to play sound with alsa under a 2.6 kernel, the quality is awful, the system seems to repetitively play little snatchs of my tune over and over, superimposing some of the sound on top of what it has already played.
Essentially my perl script is: system("timidity -L /usr/share/timidity -Ou -o$au_file $midi_file > /tmp/timidity 2> /dev/null"); system("play -v $volume $au_file "); lsmod | grep snd: snd_seq_oss 34656 0 snd_seq_midi 8576 0 snd_seq_midi_event 7680 2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi snd_seq 53872 6 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_ens1371 24932 0 snd_rawmidi 25124 2 snd_seq_midi,snd_ens1371 snd_seq_device 8200 3 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi snd_pcm_oss 55080 0 snd_mixer_oss 20096 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 98728 2 snd_ens1371,snd_pcm_oss snd_page_alloc 11752 1 snd_pcm snd_timer 25732 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_ac97_codec 69988 1 snd_ens1371 snd 57156 13 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event,snd_seq,snd_ens1371,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_ac97_codec soundcore 10336 1 snd gameport 4704 1 snd_ens1371 If I revert to a 2.2 kernel and use the oss drivers, everything is fine. But with 2.6 and alsa I can use mplayer and listen to BBC Radio 3, no problem.
