I am a bit disappointed. This bug has been reported by Jim Rorie on 2011-10-14, more than 2 full years ago.
I agree there is not a lot of people impacted The Importance is Low and nobody is assigned to this bug. There is no workaround. I have audio with static every few seconds and I can't listen or record properly. Is it not important? I want to capture video with this computer but I can't. To my point of view, this but is hightly important as I can't do my video project. Do I need to wait another 2 years? Please could you tell me if you will start to fix it and how long it will take. I'll decide if I need to switch to another distribution. I already tried Centos but the video tools are in very old version. Ubuntu has recent version and LTS I'd like tu use in April. -- 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/874535 Title: Volume Slider Jumps, due to rapidly changing hardware jack sense state Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In Oneiric Release, The volume slider randomly jump down a notch or two for fraction of a second, even when there is no audio playing on the system. If mute is selected, the menu will quickly flip out of mute mode and back again. This change actually affects the audio output, resulting in pops correlated with the volume changes. nVidia GF106 Audio Controller --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
