[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2015-11-21 Thread Tyson Tan
I thoroughly tested the patches when the bug happened to me before. The
same kind of stuttering never happened again after the fix was released.
I suppose the newer reports are not related to this bug. Please
understand not all choppy audio has the same source.

You may troubleshoot over these things:
1) Turn off Wireless and Bluetooth. CSR Bluetooth adapters are more stable. 
Broadcom to my experience is very bad at this. Realtek wifi chips are kinda 
bad, too.
2) Do not use USB hub, or make sure it is sufficiently powered (>500mA per 
port, >2A DC adapter).
3) Make sure the playback samplerate is native of the device. Pulseaudio's SRC 
could introduce stuttering. If your DAC is 48K by default and you output 44.1K 
to Pulseaudio, it can chop things up.
4) Do not use aggressive power save options in your BIOS.
5) Try plug the DAC on USB2.0 only ports, not USB3.0 ports. Many USB3.0 ports 
are running on 3rd party chips.

Hope it helps!

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25 > v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27

  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
"Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC)". It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called "Synchronous USB 
DAC", uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2015-02-27 Thread a!
Just a short update:
Since my old computer brock down (more then 8 years old laptop), I have now a 
Thinkpad T450p. Running Kubuntu 14.10, as before my DAC is an Audiolab 8200CD. 
And this issue does not occur anymore, neither on the USB 2 nor USB 3 plug.
So might have been really an hardware issue somehow for me before.
Cheers!

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-12-07 Thread Tim Passingham
To keep this brief - I'm an idiot.  It's all my own fault. Sorry for
wasting people's time reading my scribbles.

Now the longer version.  I did some extensive tests, playing local music
via VLC - OK. Remote server music via VLC and foobar (under wine) - Not
OK.  Internet music (Firefox, BBC radio streams) - Not OK.  Ethernet vs
Wi-Fi - no difference.  I then looked at my notes for any modifications
I might have made in the past, and there it was.  I had changed the
default pulse-audio bit rate in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf to suit another
application using a different output device.  My memory being what it is
(age...) I had totally forgotten. Reverting to standard fixed the
problem.  I don't really understand why local music under VLC was OK and
other's not, but no matter.  The problem has gone away.

Now I shall go away and hide

I am on 14.04, 64 bit, a new Samsung laptop bought earlier this year.

Connecting via USB 2 or USB 3 to my Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC Async USB
DAC gives the crackles and interruptions as described above (analogue or
digital).  When connected it is described as a PCM2706 Audio Codec
Digital Stereo (IEC958).  I have tried the Analogue and Digital
configurations.  Quite often Pulseaudio just stops and restarts.

Connecting via USB 2 or USB 3 to my Meridian Explorer Async USB DAC
works fine.

On my old (2003) Sony Laptop, recently retired, it worked fine.

An extract from my syslog follows.  I had just disconnected from the USB
3 port and connected to my USB 2 port. This is, whatever the log may
say, not a USB 3 device or port.

WIll there really be no fix? It seems pretty fundamental for many Async
USB DACs.

Title:
  USB Audio Codec choppy playback

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu using
  Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.
  Ubuntu 13.04 AMD64, daily build as new as 20130314.

  2) The version of the package used
  linux-image-3.5.0-26-generic
  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

2014-12-06 Thread Tim Passingham
Furthermore, I resurrected my old Sony laptop just to try and test this,
with xubuntu 14.04, and it works OK.  Being of 2003 vintage it's only
just USB 2, let alone 3.

So it seems to me that there may be a problem with the USB 3 support
misidentifying a USB 2 device in some fashion.

Can I force something in the udev rules somewhere?

2014-12-06 Thread Andrejs Hanins
@Tim Passingham, as I understood from Alan Stern in earlier posts, most modern 
computers emulate USB2 through USB3 root hub, so basically USB3 XHCI driver is 
used for all connected devices, and async usb audio support in XHCI driver is 
somewhat flawed.
I also had similar problem a year a so ago, but it disappeared since then (now 
on Ubuntu 14.10 Arcam R-DAC).

 Dec 6 13:33:29 twpsamlinux kernel: [ 512.148960] usb 3-1: new full-

OHCI is strictly USB-1.1.  However, you have not provided nearly enough
useful information to tell what's going wrong.  You didn't even say what
version of the kernel you are using! -- let alone provide a usbmon trace
like some of the other people contributing to this bug report.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-12-06 Thread Tim Passingham
I assumed that since others had supplied so much detail I didn't need to
supply any more.  I was simply saying that this problem affects me as
well (as I think was requested by an earlier post), and noting that on
an older USB-2 only system I get no problems at all (and didn't have on
previous versions of xubuntu).  I thought that might be useful extra
information.

I don't know enough about linux to know what to include, or how.  I am
just a user, not any form of expert.  So I don't know what OHCI is, but
when is says .../0/usb3/3-1... I assume that's what it means.  More fool
me.

Both laptops are on 14.04 xubuntu, fully up to date.  If it really will
help, I will try to read and understand all 200 items here and submit
further data, but I didn't imagine I'd have anything new to contribute.

Title:
  USB Audio Codec choppy playback

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu using
  Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.
  Ubuntu 13.04 AMD64, daily build as new as 20130314.

  2) The version of the package used
  linux-image-3.5.0-26-generic
  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/
  linux-image-3.7.7-030707-generic_3.7.7-030707.201302111436_amd64.deb

  linux-image-3.8.0-030800rc7-generic_3.8.0-030800rc7.201302081635_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)

2014-12-06 Thread Tim Passingham
Andrejas: You say I also had similar problem a year a so ago, but it
disappeared since then (now on Ubuntu 14.10 Arcam R-DAC).  Are you
saying that the same DAC didn't work under 14.04 but does under 14.10?
Has the problem therefore definitely been analysed and fixed in 14.10?

What makes you think this is the same problem?  It probably isn't, 
since the problem that originally provoked this bug report has been 
fixed.  And so have some of the other problems raised later on in this 
same bug report.

 and noting that on

I doubt that the age of the system is directly related.

What is the output from uname -r?  Also, see comment #172.

I also am having terrible USB audio.  Trying to just chill listening to
the blues, and hear every minute, a pop or hiccup.  If I switch to the
onboard sound (even if SPDIF output), perfectly fine.  My monitor's
built in speakers are USB, and I'm about to just connect regular
speakers to the built in sound output.

I've been having this problem for several years.  (Since I bought this
computer in 2008 to be exact).

be honest, after 6 years of unresolved USB audio, I've grown to just
accept that this will never be fixed.

Title:
  USB Audio Codec choppy playback

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu using
  Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.
  Ubuntu 13.04 AMD64, daily build as new as 20130314.

  2) The version of the package used
  linux-image-3.5.0-26-generic
  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/
  linux-image-3.7.7-030707-generic_3.7.7-030707.201302111436_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7.7-raring/
  linux-image-3.8.0-030800rc7-generic_3.8.0-030800rc7.201302081635_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  USB Audio Streaming Controller on affected devices:
  Texas Instrument TAS1020

  Audio DAC on affected devices:

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  3.5.0-25  3.5.0-26
  3.5.7.5  3.5.7.6 (and all 3.5.7.x above)
  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)
  3.8.0-rc6  3.8.0-rc7 (and all 3.8.x above)
  I used Kdiff to find the similar patches, and find the following patches 
suspicous:
  USB: XHCI: fix memory leak of URB-private data
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: fix for leaking isochronous data

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-06-03 Thread Alan Stern
The usbmon trace contains a bunch of -63 error codes.  28 of them
occurred during the 13-second trace.  This code is documented to mean
During an OUT transfer, the Host Controller could not retrieve data
system memory fast enough to keep up with the USB data rate.

In other words, the PCI bus in your old laptop was overloaded.

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8

  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

2014-06-03 Thread a!
Thanks for looking into it!
But I wonder, if this should be an issue of my hardware, why I can use the same 
laptop with the same DAC without problems with daphile (http://www.daphile.com/ 
, a headless Gentoo-based player)? Shouldn't daphile have the same problems? Or 
is there a way to configure the PCI bus to get it working?

2014-06-03 Thread Alan Stern
I can't tell what's happening with daphile.  Maybe it's simply a matter
of how much network activity or disk activity or graphics activity is
going on at the time.  (Of course, storing a usbmon trace creates some
disk activity of its own...)

You can check whether graphics is the issue by switching to a VT console
while the audio is playing.

There is no way to reconfigure the PCI bus.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-05-24 Thread a!
Hi!
Finally I also upgraded to Kubuntu 14.04, and have also still the crackles. 
Since it is a very old Laptop, there are only USB 2.0 connectors, so for sure 
no USB-3.0 problem...

And: running on the same laptop daphile (which is a headless player
based on Gentoo) works fine, without any problems. Wondering why it's
fine with that one, but not Kubuntu...

So, let's see if I can help anything...

Here's my lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0451:8200 Texas Instruments, Inc. 
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

So, the 5th is the DAC, a Audiolab 8200CD. (no other USB devices
connected)

dmesg gives a lot of outputs, so only ones that differ while playback are:
[19545.228188] 3:2:1: cannot get freq at ep 0x1
[19545.231204] 3:2:1: cannot get freq at ep 0x1
[19549.621200] delay: estimated 265, actual 44
(all other lines are similar to: [19550.940214] status interrupt: 80 02)

Since I am also more a user then a linux pro: what prompts might be
useful to narrow the problem down?

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

I recently heard that USB audio works okay over USB-3 using xHCI
controllers from NEC rather than Intel; see

   http://marc.info/?l=linux-usbm=139958150312402w=2

If you run lspci, it will show the manufacturers for the xHCI
controllers in your system.

You can find the correspondence between the PCI device list and the USB
bus list by running

   grep . /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb*/serial

In addition to the NEC controller, your listing includes two EHCI (i.e.,
USB-2) controllers; they are the ones with Enhanced in the
description.  Any of those controllers ought to work okay for your
audio.

  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  USB Audio Streaming Controller on affected devices:

I have asked the retailer to take back the card I have purchased.  It is
of no use to me if Linux is reporting it as USB3 and not USB2.

2014-05-02 Thread Alan Stern
Just what I was going to suggest.  Maybe you can find a true USB-2 card
somewhere else.

You can try building a kernel with the attached (untested) patch.  It is
a partial fix for a bug in the xHCI driver, and it might solve your
problem on the USB-3 ports.

** Patch added: Partial fix for xhci-hcd isochronous start-frame bug

2014-05-02 Thread Alan Stern
There probably is a document somewhere on the Ubuntu web site explaining
how to do this.  (I don't know where, and I don't use Ubuntu.)  Or maybe
Joseph Salisbury can do it for you.

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

2014-05-01 Thread Alan Stern
What about the dmesg output for when you plugged in the audio device?

The information in the usbmon trace suggests that the device was plugged
into a USB-3 port, not into the USB-2 PCI card.

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)

I hate to say this, but the xhci_hcd in the second line means that the
port is USB-3, not USB-2.

2014-04-22 Thread Mark Rich
The device is now plugged into a USB port on the motherboard.  I will do
a USBMON trace for you later.  I will need to buy another PCI USB card
from eBay or other to provide another set of USB ports, however I'm
using only half of those I presently have so will be overflowing with
them.. :-/

The homePC/Server I built isn't a year old yet.  I cannot justify
replacing motherboard, RAM and CPU just for a single problem.  I am
using a 3770K on an ASUS P8Z-77v-Deluxe motherboard.  Nothing about my

Mark,

I've just had the same problem on Gentoo with a new (and rather
expensive) DAC. With the 3.13 and 3.14 kernels it sounds like a bowl of
Rice Krispies - snap, crackle and pop.

BUT! After reading this bug report I tried the latest 3.4 kernel
(3.4.87) and that works perfectly. It would be nice to track down the
proper fix, but at least we can listen to some nice music in the

-

I have just added a QED Bluetooth receiver to my sound system to allow me to 
stream my music without the rice krispies effect.
It's not a solution, but a fudge and work around until someone can help fix it. 
 It doesn't sound as good and it chops off the top end frequencies but it's 
something. :-(

I tried a fresh installation of 14.04, in case of any legacy issues,
files and configs from the 13.10 installation, but alas the same
problems remained.

I did consider using openSUSE or another flavour of Linux too.  I guess
with your test of Gentoo, I can put it to one side.

2014-04-21 Thread Alan Stern
Mark, Phil, and others:

This problem is not going to get solved any time soon.  It requires a
substantial rewrite of a large portion of the ehci-hcd driver,, which
would itself take many months, and I have other things to work on.

In theory you can get around the problem by buying an add-on PCI USB
card and plugging the audio device into that card instead of into the
motherboard's USB ports.  Of course, this isn't practical for laptops
and it has other obvious disadvantages.

If anybody feels like doing the work to fix up ehci-hcd, I'll be happy
to provide advice and oversee their efforts.

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

Your suggestion does not work for me.

I have a USB PCI card installed to my computer alongside my motherboard
USB ports.  I have already tried the Arcam device on its ports with the
same results when trying to isolate the cause previously.

You know, if would help a lot if you provided some concrete data instead
of just saying it doesn't work.  For example, what shows up in the
dmesg log when you plug the audio device into the PCI card?  If you
collect a usbmon trace showing a noise-filled session, what do you get
(see comments #72-#53 and also comment #82).

  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  USB Audio Streaming Controller on affected devices:
  Texas Instrument TAS1020

  Audio DAC on affected devices:

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  3.5.0-25  3.5.0-26
  3.5.7.5  3.5.7.6 (and all 3.5.7.x above)
  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)
  3.8.0-rc6  3.8.0-rc7 (and all 3.8.x above)
  I used Kdiff to find the similar patches, and find the following patches 
suspicous:
  USB: XHCI: fix memory leak of URB-private data
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)

2014-04-21 Thread Alan Stern
Was this dmesg taken after you plugged the device into the add-on PCI
card?  It shows that the device is connected to a USB-3 port.

That's the reason for your problems; the support in Linux for
isochronous transfers over USB-3 is buggy.  Try plugging the device into
a USB-2 port instead.

I will do so, however the problem is the same for both USB2 and USB3
ports.  I have tried them all in the past on the three controllers

Title:
  USB Audio Codec choppy playback

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu using
  Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.
  Ubuntu 13.04 AMD64, daily build as new as 20130314.

  2) The version of the package used
  linux-image-3.5.0-26-generic
  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  USB Audio Streaming Controller on affected devices:

  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)
  3.8.0-rc6  3.8.0-rc7 (and all 3.8.x above)
  I used Kdiff to find the similar patches, and find the following patches

2014-04-21 Thread Alan Stern
Have you tried an add-on PCI USB-2 card?  (The lsusb output suggests you
don't.)  That's the combination most likely to work.  If you can do
that, attach the corresponding usbmon trace.

If you don't have any USB-2 ports on the PCI card, attach a usbmon trace
using a USB-2 port on the motherboard.

2014-04-18 Thread Mark Rich
So I patiently waited for weeks until the release of 14.04 with its 3.13
kernel and the problem remains.

Did the patch not get integrated into the final release?

If not, why and how can I do it myself - in easy steps please!

I still cannot use my DAC without the crackles and pops. :-(

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-02-19 Thread Mark Rich
I have the arcam mwave device mentioned above.

I am using 13.10 with kernel 3.11.0-17-generic as part of the normal
update procedure but the problem is still present.

I am uncertain how to apply the fix mentioned above (still very green when it 
comes to kernel rebuilds).
How can I resolve?

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10

  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

2014-02-19 Thread a!
@mark: since i have the same problem (see #158) and am also
unexperienced with kernel installations, I just wait now until the
kernel 3.13 is in the package updates, I hope at latest with 14.04, so
in 2 months...

or is there anywhere a simple manual how to do this update? which kernel
will be in 14.04? or will be an kernel-update before?

I have an laptop Acer and an Asus Xonar U7 with asynchronus USB Audio CM6632A. 
I'v tried this patches, but clicks was still here, with different kernel 
version. I'v started unloading kernel modules and after unloading acer-wmi 
clicks disapear.
Also nvidia's GPU powermizer frequency shift makes klicks sometimes. Setting 
constant GPU frequency fix this.
After blacklisting acer-wmi and setting constatn GPU freq. clicks completly 
disapear, even during kernel compill with 100% cpu load.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2014-01-03 Thread netsuso
Alan,

I have an asynchronous DAC (HRT microStreamer) and I had the problem
described in this bug with current kernel releases when setting the
output to 88.2 or 96 KHz (just as a side note, it only happened with
ehci ports, it worked correctly with xhci ports)

I've just tried 3.13rc6 which includes your commit to improve the
buffering and it works perfectly!! No more crackling even at 96/24.

So it's fixed for me, thanks a lot for your time and your effort!! :)

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1136110] Re: USB Audio Codec choppy playback

2013-12-08 Thread a!
Think I have similar problems using my Audiolab 8200 CD with the latest
Kubuntu (Kernel 3.11.0-14).

Described my problem here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2190729 , but got no useful
help, and found now this bug report. Please let me know if I can do
something what would help the debugging, beside the informations in the
link...

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

2013-11-12 Thread Alan Stern
Andrejs:

If you read comments #118 and #121, you would understand why the
kernel's revert is different from the patch attached to comment #118.

There is another commit currently queued for the 3.13 kernel release:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/commit?id=976b6c064a957445eb0573b270f2d0282630e9b9

You might find that it helps your system.  If it doesn't, please follow
the debugging procedure described in comments #82, 90, 105, and 111.

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8

  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

2013-11-11 Thread Andrejs Hanins
@Alan
At least, the distorted sound I hear is very similar to the original 
description and the patch provided here does help me. I'm very confused, 
because even the 3.9.6 kernel from ppa, which contains the fix does not help 
me. 

What I'll do is to compile several versions of kernel with and without a
patch to have an absolutely clear experiment and report here.

To my surprise, the patch committed to the official Linux repo 
(https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=fdc03438f53a00294ed9939eb3a1f6db6f3d8963)
 is very different from the patch attached to this bug report 
(https://launchpadlibrarian.net/140553725/ehci-split-bugs). Why is it so?  I 
guess, this a the reason why my USB async DAC still does not work with the 
officially fixed kernel and works with this local patch. I'm looking forward to 
resolve this situation and provide any additional debug info if needed. And I 
don't use USB Hub. Also the my locally compiled patched 3.9.4 Kernel has been 
working flawlessly with my Arcam USB Dac (r-dac)for half a year without any 
single issue.

2013-11-11 Thread Toby Corkindale
I thought I should chip in to confirm that I still get occasional issues
with my USB DAC, even on the current Saucy 3.11.0-12 kernel. The
symptoms are identical to those that were occurring prior to the patch,
however now they usually resolve by unplugging and replugging the DAC,
whereas prior to the patch they never resolved.

I'm thinking there's still something not-quite-right in the kernel
handling of these async audio devices. (Or possibly, these async audio
devices don't always obey the USB spec perfectly in some way?)

Hi all, sorry for bothering, but I'm upgraded to latest Ubuntu 13.10 and the 
bug is still there, despite the fact fix was available few months ago. Is it 
expected situation?
Thanks.

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

2013-08-01 Thread Welly Wu
So, I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit and I have this:

wellywu@System76:/etc/pulse$ uname -r
3.8.0-27-generic

When is this going to be fixed?

I have a HRT MicroStreamer asynchronous USB DAC and headphone amplifier.
I downloaded and installed Clementine Development from the PPA and I set
ALSA sink to hw:1,0 output and I get crackling sounds when playing 88.2
and 96 kHz high resolution FLAC files.

  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.

  Affected Devices:
  Arce MDAC5
  Arce MDAC mini
  Ayre Acoustics QB-9
  Dragonfly USB DAC
  Musical Fidelity v2 DAC

  USB Audio Streaming Controller on affected devices:

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  3.5.0-25  3.5.0-26
  3.5.7.5  3.5.7.6 (and all 3.5.7.x above)
  3.7.6  3.7.7 (and all 3.7.x above)
  3.8.0-rc6  3.8.0-rc7 (and all 3.8.x above)
  I used Kdiff to find the similar patches, and find the following patches 
suspicous:
  USB: XHCI: fix memory leak of URB-private data
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: fix for leaking isochronous data
  (appeared in 3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  usb: Prevent dead ports when xhci is not enabled
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  usb: Using correct way to clear usb3.0 device's remote wakeup feature
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: remove ASS/PSS polling timeout
  (appeared in 3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: unlink one async QH at a time
  (appeared in 3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: fix timer bug affecting port resume
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)
  USB: EHCI: fix bug in scheduling periodic split transfers
  (appeared in 3.5.7.6/3.7.7/3.8.0-rc7)

  Hope someone can look into this bug soon!

Title:
  USB Audio Codec choppy playback

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu using
  Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64.
  Ubuntu 13.04 AMD64, daily build as new as 20130314.

  2) The version of the package used
  linux-image-3.5.0-26-generic
  linux-image-3.5.7-03050706-generic_3.5.7-03050706.201302221435_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.7.6-quantal/
  linux-image-3.7.7-030707-generic_3.7.7-030707.201302111436_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7.7-raring/
  linux-image-3.8.0-030800rc7-generic_3.8.0-030800rc7.201302081635_amd64.deb
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-rc7-raring/

  This bug had been confirmed appearing after the following kernel upgrade step:
  v3.5.0-25  v3.5.0-26 ~ v3.5.0-27
  v3.5.7.5  v3.5.7.6 ~ v3.5.7.8
  v3.7.6  v3.7.7 ~ v3.7.10
  v3.8.0-rc6  v3.8.0-rc7 ~ v3.8.5
  The v3.9 branch has been affected since its very first release.
  v3.9-rc1, v3.9-rc2, v3.9-rc3 v3.9-rc4 are all affected.

  3) What you expected to happen
  When using a USB DAC to play audio, the audio should be played normally 
without any interruption.

  4) What happened instead
  This bug seems to affect only a certain kind of hardware, which is called 
Asynchronous USB Digital Audio Codec (DAC). It's said that such a DAC hosts 
the clock itself (USB Device Host). An ordinary DAC, so called Synchronous USB 
DAC, uses the clock hosted by the mother board, which is not affected by this 
bug.

  When this bug affects an asynchronous USB DAC, the audio played by the
  DAC is constantly interrupted. The playback itself does not stop, but
  the output becomes discontinous, filling with constant crackling
  noises, destroying everything the DAC plays.

  Using CLI command grep device.buffering to get the buffer from the
  devices, those affected kernels are reporting back a different number
  to the unaffected devices. The choppy noise is very similar to the
  situation when buffer size is not correctly set.

  I have tested four USB DACs, two Asynchronous and two Synchronous.
  Only the Asynchronous ones are affected by this bug.
