I disabled the onboard sound, installed my old PNP ISA SB16, ran sndconfig and I was in business. -- Steve Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

It began in KDE 2.0. I didn't have it with KDE 1.94, 1.99. What finally fixed it for me was KDE, Control Center | Sound | Soundserver | and UNcheck "Start aRts soundserver on KDE startup'. This disables system sounds (ie, sounds on clicks or keystrokes). I previously tried enabling "Run sounderver with real time priority" which helped some, so I've left it enabled. It's one of those things I got fixed, but I'm not sure how or why, YMMV. -- Tom Brinkman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Galveston Bay Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

You could try changing some of the aRTs settings in the Control Center -> Sound -> Sound Server section. I myself had problems with my AudioPCI and a SB PCI 128 and sound distortion. I would get a cricket-like chirping noise overlaying and overwhelming the actual sounds (wav files, etc) though there was no problem when playing CDs. Ultimately, I dumped my AudioPCI and the 128 and went with the built-in ac97 sound system on my motherboard. Not the best option, and not always an option for others, but that was the quickest and easiest fix for me. It works fine for my limited sound needs, at least. If you cannot get aRTs to play nice, then I suppose you could dump it and go with using strictly alsa or oss the old-fashioned way (which worked quite well). I am not sure what is involved in that so someone else would need to guide you in that endeavor. praedor Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.
[expert] distorted sound in LM72?
hello: I just installed LM72 on one of my friends computer, and I just ran in to a problem with the soundcard: Soundblaster PCI128. The sound is distorted, My friend is a DJ so there is no chance he can live with that, so how do I fix that?
