I finally upgraded to 14.04; same exact issue. One coincidence I noticed and am looking into is that I didn't notice any stuttering when only 64 bit code was running, but when flash or steam were running (both of which run some 32 bit code, if I'm not mistaken), the stuttering began immediately. I'm not 100% sure that's the only time it stutters now, but it's happened enough times that I'm not sure it's just coincidence. Does that ring any bells for anyone?
I'm sick and tired of this issue. Ubuntu has moved on from Alsa, and I'd like to too. I might get a (hopefully cheap) sound card to test out if that can fix the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996906 Title: periodic audio skips with Intel HDA To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/996906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
