Title:
[GA-MA770T-UD3P, Realtek ALC888] Distorted crackling noise when used
with low latency clients
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Description:
In certain applications, including FluidSynth (and sometimes VLC) yet not
Rhythmbox, the onboard audio of the Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P (rev. 1.0)
motherboard "sort of" works; there is a loud, distorted crackling noise mixed
with the audio. A different, more "ordinary" crackle occurs in audio recorded
using Sound Recorder and Skype.
Both playback and recording in 12.04 and 12.10 are affected. I do not
remember how well the audio worked in 11.10. Sometimes, after some
time has elapsed, or when other applications (e.g. Flash plugin) are
opened, the crackle goes away. In fact, it did go away a couple
seconds after I clicked Apport's "Close" button after reproducing the
bug using the steps below.
Workarounds I tried:
Upgrading to the latest DKMS driver snapshot (dkms-hda -
0.201212071018~quantal1) made no difference. "position_fix=1" made no
difference either (perhaps that was already in use). "position_fix=2" removed
the crackle but caused a sound I can best describe as "CD skipping".
Adding the "tsched=0" setting to /etc/pulse/default.pa did work for
playback. However, this did not fix recording in the aforementioned
applications.
Steps to reproduce (on my hardware):
1. sudo apt-get install fluid-soundfont-gm fluid-soundfont-gs fluidsynth
2. pulseaudio -k
3. fluidsynth -nia pulseaudio /usr/share/sounds/sf2/*.sf2 foo.mid
fluidsynth -nia alsa is also problematic, EXCEPT when I specify "-o
'audio.alsa.device=hw'".
