I had all the problems as described by Øyvind Stegard and I have the feeling that it got slightly better after installing the latest available BIOS for my Thinkpad T60 2007-CTO (ATI X1400, iwl3945, snd- hda-intel).
I'm running 32bit Arch with the 3.11.4-1-ARCH Kernel and xf86-video-ati 1:7.2.0-1 I've tried all other options mentioned here, without any sign of improvement. What can I do to further help investigating this problem? Would it be of any help to e.g. study the IRQ settings used in windows? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879790 Title: Sound doesn't play properly after upgrade from 11.04->11.10, also affects 12.04 Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver: Confirmed Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After the upgrade from Natty to Oneiric the sound that is played (by any program ex. banshee, VLC, Flash) sound very awkward, like if the whole sound is slightly gargling. My computer: Thinkpad T60 Already tried to solve the problem: The german ubuntuforum has a wiki- page to solve sound problems (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Sound_Problembehebung). Unfortunately, nothing helped - even a reinstalling of the Alsa-Module didn't solve the problem. Hence I think this is a bug. Special: In the thread that I opened in the german forum (http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/nach-upgrade-11-04-auf-11-10 -ueberschlaegt-der-ton/) there was another user that has the same Problem AND he has the same computer as I do. Therefore, I'm not sure if it is a computerspecific problem that may be connected with the chipset of the T60...
