That doesn't make any sense though, my laptop is an 8-core laptop that's sitting idle almost all the time when the crackling/popping happens. It *COULD* be something related to the frequency of my CPU changing.. I realized that the new intel power management stuff is clocking my CPU all over the place.. In the old days it would only cycle between 3 or 4 different frequencies and it would be very slow about reclocking.. Now it's almost instantaneous reclocking of the CPU to save power and it's got a lot of different frequencies it can clock to.. If I set my CPU to a fixed frequency, either the lowest or the highest possible frequency the CPU supports, the entire problem disappears. But I'm not going to run my CPU on a fixed frequency like that because it's always either inconveniently slow or a power hog. So I need to use the configuration change to pulseaudio described above which seems to fix the problem entirely. -David _______________________________________________ pkg-pulseaudio-devel mailing list pkg-pulseaudio-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-pulseaudio-devel
