I posted this in #207135 too (probably a dup?): If you are getting high CPU usage from pulse, change the resample method in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf to a less CPU intensive algorithm: resample-method = src-sinc-fastest See if this works for you. My CPU dropped from 2-5% CPU to pretty much below

Thanks for the clarification Daniel. Is there any way we're able to help? My audio controller [1] consumes a lot of CPU too, if glitch-free usage is disabled. In fact the whole system is nearly unusable when playing sound or video (up to 60% CPU usage for pulse alone). [1] 00:1f.5 Multimedia

PulseAudio cannot currently switch between glitch-free (and not) without an explicit (manual) default.pa reconfiguration and restart. Your configuration (and mine) seems amenable to glitch-free usage, but a great many other jaunty users have configurations that are not. Until the most severe of

Find the line that loads module-hal-detect in /etc/pulse/default.pa, and remove tsched=0 from the end of it, and restart pulseaudio with pulseaudio -k; start-pulseaudio-x11. Do things settle down then? In addition, once you make this change, do you get crackly/glitchy audio at all? -- Pulseaudio

Hey Luke, Just tried your suggestion of removing the tsched=0 and then running pulseaudio -k; start-pulseaudio-x11. Did not have any luck (keeps saying daemon startup failed). Anyway the log of what I did (minus the editing of the conf file) is attached. ** Attachment added: lukecommands.txt

Ignore the last post (I did not read all of the output of the pulseaudio -v -v) (I commented out the #tsched=0 and it tried to use that as an argument). Anyways testing your commands again now with the config file set right. -- Pulseaudio using alot of cpu to underruns and overruns

Luke that seems to have worked. No problems as of yet no crackling or distortions of any kind and the cpu usage is down to a total of 3%. What was that line telling pulse to do? (don't tell me pulse was outputting through itself =S?). -- Pulseaudio using alot of cpu to underruns and overruns

Luke thanks for you replies and help. Pulseaudio is running fine now however: Where do we take this bug from here? Do we just make sure that tsched=0 is not the default? Or do we try figure out why my system hates that option? Anyway here is the output of lshw -html for my affected system. Tell
