It's mplayer.  I ran a search in the source and found the string.
Seems to be timing out while trying to write audio, and the comment
seems to imply that this is a synchronization issue.  Since it only
started recently, I think it isn't.  

There is no problem with the version in Fedora, it works properly.  I'm
using the subversion repository to build, so this is a regression there.

See if it's reproducible in players other than mplayer.  If not, mplayer is 
to blame, else it's most likely something in the audio stack (one usual 
culprit is audio driver).

Audio error while playing audio with mplayer in konsole in F17

2012-04-12 Thread stan
I keep getting the error,
Audio device got stuck!
when playing audio in konsole using mplayer in F17.  The sound
continues playing, but I think I hear a slight sound like brushing a
microphone when this occurs.  It happens fairly frequently, sometimes
several times within a few seconds, and sometimes it takes a minute.

I'm not sure whether it is mplayer, alsa, or pulseaudio causing the
problem.  Anyone have insight on this?

Thanks.
