Hi group, I have installed alsa 0.9 (have intel8x0) and it works fine for playing mp3s and wavs. However when I try to watch video, the sound is fine for about 15 seconds and then gets worse and worse until it is choppy, clicking and reverberating... totally awful. If I quickly pause and play again, then it starts OK again for 15 or so seconds before deteriorating. I get the same problem whether I use xine, mplayer, ogle, omi and what's more I get the same problem if it is a DVD, an mpeg, or an avi file. Actually, with xine it has periodic glitches (only in the audio) playing a DVD. The CPU load is not very high either, so it's not that. I tried the trial version of the commercial OSS but that was even worse (in a different way).
Please let me know where you think the problem lies (it may not be alsa). I can't find a similar problem on any of the lists.
