Hi release team, [ Reason ] This change fixes a long-standing bug in the fluidsynth daemon that was fixed in the Debian package just a tad too late to make it into Trixie. [ Impact ] The fluidsynth daemon is misconfigured by upstream to use a wrong samplerate and buffer size which leads to stuttering and distorted audio. [ Tests ] Users reported that the distortion was fixed after applying the changed configuration. [ Risks ] Well, one system's wrong configuration is the other system's right configuration. However, when using the fluidsynth daemon on a system with pipewire, which is the default on a Debian desktop installation, the configurations will have to match. [ Checklist ] [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] Set the default samplerate to 48000 and buffer size to 512 in the service config file (Closes: #1075976, #1105956). [ Other info ] Nope, that's it.
