I'm also experiencing audio stuttering and wanted to contribute my findings. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 with the rt kernel. First off, I think there are many sources of this problem which all result in audio drop outs, which is likely why this bug has become so confusing. I was also experiencing

I can confirm that this is fixed for me for the new -17 kernel. I downclocked my cpu and opened about 20 windows to test and found no stutter. I think I read in the update description that this was meant to be fixed. I would suggest changing the bug status once this is the default kernel. --

Daniel, I'm sorry, but kernel 2.6.24-17-generic does not help with PulseAudio stuttering (although some applications appear more resistant to stuttering than others). For example (using the default pulse settings): totem (gstreamer, using pulse) will never stutter under CPU load. VLC using pulse

I'm almost positive the _symptoms_ are due to bug 188226. According to the source code, PulseAudio itself doesn't seem to overoptimistically buffer. If you do not use a driver in the restricted component, please test the 17-generic kernel in hardy-proposed. -- Over-optimistic buffering in
