Jerther: Okay, so you said, without my patch you get full working 5.1 with crackling, but with my patch you get only left channel with no crackling, is that correct? I know my patch works with at least two channels and I suspect it should work with any number, so let's see what's going on. (Actually, it's really the same as typing PULSE_NO_SIMD=1 pulseaudio, but a permanent way of doing that.) I'm definitely not saying my script is correct, although the four lines I commented in the code I don't think would cause these troubles. It's most likely script issues.
Did you try my script with just the wget and dpkg parts, and just type "killall pulseaudio" after it? That means, "autospawn=yes" (or nothing) should be in your pulse/client.conf... In other words, only until the "# enter your pw" line. This will install all the packages, and "killall pulseaudio" should kill any running instances. I *think* it will restart my new pulseaudio version after you do this too, although you're not going to see any messages because it restarts on its own where messages won't go to your console. I guess your subjective observations of crackling and all channels working will prove whether my version is running. If there are any problems, I really need the log of what my script did (more specifically any dpkg messages). If libpulse-dev is broken I need the error log of this. I don't know why it would be, and it's probably? not your fault, but regardless..I guess we can find out for sure. Really even if you run my script, up until the "# enter your pw" line, ten times, it should not make a difference with anything. So if you're getting errors, you can just run it again up until that point and I can see what's going on. I don't know how you're running the script right now, but just truncate it at that point, after the dpkg -i... If you would, do this before you run it, but it shouldn't make any difference. "rm -r ~/pa_no_simd" Don't reinstall; this should be not so bad to fix. It is important to delve deeper into the problem, so we can all come up with a proper solution. Thanks for your patience though. I have had to uproot my system several times (well, not because of *this* patch) to debug things. I guess this is what you signed up for.
