I have also Intel HDA audio controller (Thinkpad R61) and also have heavy crackling problem (usually audio is crackling, sometimes it's silent, very occasionaly it's ok). But not in MP3 files (they play ok), but in AVI (containing MP3 usually). For example in this file: http://games.on.net/file/8386/StarCraft_II_Cinematic_Trailer or http://www.starcraft2.com/movies.xml (Cinematic Trailer)
I don't know if it is the same problem. Proposed update didn't help. But I have found out that removing/renaming this file: /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstmpegaudioparse.so solves the problem for me (AVI audio ok). Or removing whole gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly package. If you developers think it's another problem, I can report it separately. -- Crackling / scratching noise using Pulseaudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345627 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
