Title: Choppy sound in 12.10 Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Distro:- Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal, What I suspect is that sound is muted and turned on at a fast pace and that gives it the choppy sound. I discovered that If I choose Sound Card ;- Mixer - HDA Intel - the surround sliders show mute/on at a fast rate, with - do - Mixer - Play back: Build in Audio Analog Stereo - the master sliders jumps up and down rapidly a short distance. I find the same happening on U tube. Movie Player with videos not so badly affected. Following is reports that I thought could help to pin point problem. If more info needed, I would gladly provide such. Still new at this so please bear with me. Thanks in advance for help that I know would be forthcoming. ~$ lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio" 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) Subsystem: Foxconn International, Inc.
