Hi,

I had this same aU problem a few months ago on Linux Mint, but was able to
resolve it by editing the default ALSA settings in ~/.gnuradio/config.conf .

I will send detailed notes on the exact fix I made when I get home, but I
just found this page also describing the fix:
http://www.funwithelectronics.com/?id=167
(Increase 'nperiods' under [audio_alsa])

After the config change ALSA audio worked with my own WBFM flowgraph and
all the sample flowgraphs that were previously broken for me.

Apologies for not sending something to the list when I found the problem.
I knew it would have saved folks from some hair pulling.

Hope this helps,
-Remington
