apport-collect -p alsa-driver 937704 ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 879790 [Lenovo Thinkpad T60] Sound doesn't play properly after upgrade from 11.04->11.10, also affects 12.04 ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.23 ** Tags added: resume suspend -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/937704 Title: [9462GAG, Analog Devices AD1981, Green Line Out, Left] Sound is distorted: clipping is after computer resumes from standby Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After turning computer on and before sending it to standby sound is played normally but after resuming from standby sound is distorted. This affects both programs that use gstreamer (Banshee) and at least one that doesn't (Audacious). Have tried the three suggestions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/PositionReporting but none is able to fix the problem. This problem seems to get worse under high CPU load. Curiously, if a music is playing and I press reboot, in the time between clicking 'Reboot' and the actual reboot, sound is played normally, meaning, the clipping and distortions disappear during these 2-3 secs that it takes ubuntu to close all processes and restart the computer. [EDIT] It also affects Ubuntu 12.04 Beta 1!
