Maybe you have a problem with specific output encodings. $ mpg123 -vvv prints a table of encodings (and rates, channel modes) the output module supports and you also see what choice mpg123 makes. > Am I correct that the fact that it works with two modules makes this > test un-necessary? So pulse and OSS work. I presume you are running Pulseaudio, then? Interesting that the OSS emulation works and the access via ALSA not. That reminds me of the times where it was easier to get working audio through ALSA drivers by using the OSS emulation offered by them. Hm, are we now dealing with OSS emulated by ALSA which in turn routes to Pulse? Or, don't you have pulseaudio normally running and mpg123 starts its own instance (it does that in the background if no server found)? Then it's indeed the old game of ALSA OSS emulation working better than ALSA:-/ Verbose mpg123 output might give a hint about problematic settings. You can enforce an encoding via $ mpg123 -e $encoding (see `mpg123 --longhelp |grep encoding` for choices). If things work with s16, but not with s32, for example, that might be a hint. If you can turn off pulseaudio / don't have it running, trying hardware access via ALSA might be fruitful: $ mpg123 -o alsa -a hw:0,0 The libasound software layers might get something wrong. > x86_64. > > > 2. Which decoder is used? So, either the x86-64 SSE or the AVX one should be it. But that is the same regardless of output method, so … > So my understanding is that it is the wrong decoder which is chosen, > right? … not really. Or, maybe: The output encoding constraints may select a different decoding path (specific routines for output encodings). Please re-do a test with $ mpg123 --cpu generic -o alsa If that suddenly works, we got probably got an issue with a specific output format's optimised code path. If not, we can rule out the decoders and it is really something going wrong later, in transfer. An off-by-one error in a bytestream makes for nice noise. But, most importantly: If you noticed that the Pulse output works for you, you might just use that and forget the weirdness. I gave up understanding every audio output weirdness. I'm fairly confident in that mpg123 itself is not to blame. Fairly. Alrighty then, Thomas
