When using ekiga with pulseaudio, the audio is garbled and there is tons

work again.  I'm not sure who's fault it is, but I've attached a log
from ekiga.

Most likely these are just underruns.The PA log output (with -vvvv)
could prove that.

I'm using the hda_intel driver. I noticed such output in dmesg:

ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1101: Too big adjustment 32

It seems to depend on if an other application is accessing Pulseaudio.
Because when Ekiga runs only, it works fine. When I have Rhythmbox
running, play music, then start Ekiga and run the test, I have that bug.
Would be nice if you could look into it. I'll also attach my pulse.log

Eugen Dedu mentions a couple things that might rectify this in the

to this, or my new issue.

Hi,

"worthy to upgrade opal": Upgrading to opal/ekiga from unstable is not a
good idea, as there are still a few important bugs to fix.  Instead, you
could add the ptlib pulse plugin as a patch (note: I have not compiled
it against the stable version).

As for the the audio fix, you could also wait a few days (max one week),
until 3.2.6 appears, it's as you wish.

It has the support in the trunk. there is no stable release. It will go
into rawhide when there is an ekiga 3.3 devel release but that will
unlikely be for F-12. I had a look at just pulling in the pulseaudio
support but it didn't work well (generally just locked up ekiga
entirely)

Thanks for jumping here, even though my silly comments on b.g.o.

Indeed if I kill the server or run with pasuspender and access the
soundcard directly then I don't see any difference in the audio quality
but I don't get the problems mentioned above. These issues are the usual
ones with Skype as well.

Do we have a clear handle yet on the exact intersection of PA / Ekiga /

current F12, via a USB headset (so snd-usb-audio), and have not had any
problem.

Lennart, is there sufficient information yet to pin down what's the
source of trouble here? What other information might you need?

Ekiga in F-12 is using exactly the same methods and version for the
audio as F-11. There's no difference in the packages. Real PulseAudio
support in ekiga is not due until 3.4.x. If audio works better in F-12
rather than F-11 that is due to improvements in PulseAudio as the ekiga
versions are for all intents and purposes identical.

F12, but I think comment 30 is right ... it is irrelevant as far as
Ekiga itself goes (of course, Pulseaudio in F11 is probably quite
different than what F12 has). OTOH, this was closed with NEXTRELEASE,
which may be an honest assesment of the situation. I don't know.

Ah, I see, thanks Peter - I misunderstood from earlier discussion that
F12's Ekiga used a newer opal which did direct PA support, but F11's
didn't. Thanks for the correction.
