--- Begin Message ---Package: alsa-base Version: 1.0.25+3~deb7u1 Severity: important Difficulties with sound on new Wheezu install My sound, which worked perfectly on Squeeze, now is "staticky/crackily" interrrupted, and unclear. I took my new computer to Microcenter in Rockville MD, and they swapped out the motherboard. Before returning it to me they tested the sound system with a Ubuntu disk they had and reported that the sound was very imperfect, describing it as I have above. But they also tested it with a M$ tester, and they reported that the sound using M$ was perfectly clear and normal. I am reporting this as a bug with ALSA, but pulseaudio may be at fault.
