Package: xmms
Version: 1.2.10-2
Severity: normal
I'm using ALSA sound drivers with software mixing via the ALSA dmix plugin. My
/etc/asound.conf is attached at the end of the bug report. Sometimes, often
when e.g. maximizing a window or switching browser tabs, output suddenly stops.
Xmms' playing time indicator just freezes, the "play" symbol still appears next
to it. I believe this is linked to alsa buffer underruns like they are
sometimes reported by mplayer and mpg123 on my system, but these programs
handle them gracefully (typical mplayer output: "alsa-space: xrun of at least
0,003 msecs. resetting stream"). Xmms does not.
I have increased the software mixer's buffer size in my asound.conf to a very
high value. This seems to alleviate, but not solve the problem. When using a
low buffer size, even plugging and unplugging an usb mouse almost consistently
freezes xmms output.

The xmms package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/461309 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
