First ensure that VirtualBox using the PulseAudio driver. If the bug is still present, please attach a PulseAudio verbose log according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log What version of Ubuntu are you running? ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Choppy Audio From Wine, VirtualBox when Using Simultaneous Output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 516644] Re: Choppy Audio From Wine, VirtualBox when Using Simultaneous Output
Thanks for the prompt reply David. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. Your suspicion was correct - VirtualBox was indeed using ALSA. I thought that the ability to output to multiple soundcards simultaneously was one of the key benefits of the PulseAudio layer, am I wrong? And, further, that ALSA cannot output to multiple cards simultaneously, at least without a good deal of fiddling with asoundrc? If those assumptions are correct, then the bug would appear to be in Gnome - i.e. that the output to both devices option (system/preferences/sound/output) should not be applied to applications that bypass PulseAudio and use ALSA directly. Wine is also using ALSA, as I guess you inferred (I did try out the patched wine to allow it to output to pulseaudio, but reverted to mainline a while back.) -- Choppy Audio From Wine, VirtualBox when Using Simultaneous Output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 516644] Re: Choppy Audio From Wine, VirtualBox when Using Simultaneous Output
It's a little more complicated than that. Setting Virtualbox to ALSA means virtualbox - alsa-plugins - pulseaudio - alsa-lib - kernel. I think the same goes for Wine. And there's a bug in alsa-plugins that I've fixed (a new alsa-plugins for Karmic is in my PPA) that fixes stuttering issues, at least for some users. Perhaps that one will solve your problem as well? -- Choppy Audio From Wine, VirtualBox when Using Simultaneous Output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
