So on ubuntu precise I have spent a ton of time playing with my
pulseaudio settings and system. I have the skips down to about one
every ten minutes or so, and humorously while I was typing this
sentence.
I have tsched=0 but in regards to Raymond, my
default-fragment-size-msec = 4
default-fragments = 8
and my flash videos in chrome play great. My mind is weak in the
morning before coffee, but I remember that chrome was requesting buffers
of size on the order of 64 - 100 ms , somewhere in there. I might be
incorrect, but I believe I needed my pulse settings to be LESS than
that. So 4 * 8 is 32 ms. Also, you can check ( with pacmd list-sinks
) that with tsched=1, I noticed that the "current latency" starts at
like 2 ms, and as it skips, gets larger, mine would get to around 32 -
64 ms .
in /etc/modules i have
options snd_hda_intel bdl_pos_adj=32 power_save=0 power_save_controller=N
model=6stack-dig
but you'll have to figure out your model if you use that param
here is some of my pulse settings for you to try
cat /etc/pulse/daemon.conf | grep -v -e "^;" -e "^#" | sed '/^$/d'
allow-module-loading = yes
allow-exit = yes
high-priority = yes
nice-level = -20
realtime-scheduling = yes
realtime-priority = 99
exit-idle-time = 1
scache-idle-time = 1
log-target = auto
log-level = error
resample-method = speex-float-8
enable-remixing = yes
flat-volumes = no
rlimit-nofile = -1
rlimit-nice = -1
rlimit-rtprio = -1
rlimit-rttime = -1
default-sample-rate = 44100
default-sample-channels = 2
default-channel-map = front-left,front-right
default-fragments = 8
default-fragment-size-msec = 4
and here is some more output
