Hi, I'm using the CS46xx sound chip in my Thinkpad A21m with a 2.4.20 kernel and alsa 0.9.2, compiled by gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030309 (Debian prerelease).
At unpredictable times, the sound becomes very silent, and it appears as if it was playing many times faster than it should. Only very short snippets of sound (<1ms, not intelligible) are played with lots of silence in between. This happens a lot when the computes is busy doing other things besides playing sounds (such as intense hard drive activity). It has happened to me once at least through every movie that I've watched (using mplayer, if that helps) recently. Seeking in XMMS has also caused that kind of problem before. lspci -v: 00:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 01) Subsystem: IBM: Unknown device 0153 Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at f4122000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Memory at f4000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 lspci -vn: 00:05.0 Class 0401: 1013:6003 (rev 01) Subsystem: 1014:0153 Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at f4122000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Memory at f4000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 Best regards and thank you for your help, Andreas -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Bitte lächeln!
