Sorry, I spoke too soon. It started going choppy for a few seconds at a time, and now it's choppy all the time, just like it used to be. I guess it's not totally deterministic; it must be sensitive to something environmental on my system, but I'm not sure what. All other sound- producing programs are working fine.
Back to Neil's PPA... configured to use the pulse backend... and it's working again. I guess I'll have to pin it for now. -- Occasional sound drops in Wine via PulseAudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371897 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
