I put everything in the sound panel to alsa, that makes most stuff work (flash was still a bit strange from time to time) I installed vlc-plugin-alsa (i think without it it still uses) and also put vlc to alsa output (preferences -> select the advanced box -> go to audio - filters and select also output) Then I was able to kill pulseaudio (sudo pkill pulseaudio), when I started vlc then it does not start pulseaudio anymore and it does not skip ... Googling a bit furter: some people suggest (see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766860&highlight=sound+skips )
If the above worked (the killing pulseaudio improves things), then this next part will allow you to use PulseAudio without annoying skips: Make a backup and then edit /etc/pulse/daemon.conf, and replace the lines at the end of your config with the following in red: Code: ; default-sample-format = s16le default-sample-rate = 48000 ; default-sample-channels = 2 default-fragments = 8 default-fragment-size-msec = 10 I just added this to the config but did not test it yet, just letting anyone know about my progress so far ... -- [Hardy] skipping sound in vlc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222597 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
