while performing system upgrade I did not notice any crackling then rhythmbox played music, so it's not simply system load bug, because upgrade takes a lot of cpu power and causes intensive disk activity
same crackling happens with nv drivers, so it's not related to nvidia proprietary drivers "pulseaudio -k" and then "pulseaudio -vvvv" gives error then crackling can be heard: "D: protocol-native.c: Requesting rewind due to end of underrun." updated bug description and title accordingly ** Summary changed: - audio crackling on system load - AC'97 + audio crackling with multiple streams, sometimes during simple mouse cursor interactions with gnome desktop - AC'97 ** Description changed: presumably duplicate of bug #301755 what has been observed to create audio crackling: switching between active window with mouse cursor while playing music in - rhythmbox + rhythmbox (not always) playing video in mplayer, which gets more dramatic if rhythmbox is open or if video is higher quality playing flash video in firefox while rhythmbox is playing clicking play in rhythmbox after pause ** Tags added: crackling pulseaudio sound -- audio crackling with multiple streams, sometimes during simple mouse cursor interactions with gnome desktop - AC'97 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335955 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
