This is a relatively old bug now, yet until I upgraded last night to 2:0.24.0~trunk-24634-0ubuntu1, I never had this issue on my Lucid box, and now I do.
I notice that is seems to impact anything related to the internal player, eg: Live/Pre-recorded TV and MythVideo. For me, the simplest solution has been to pause/unpause untilt he white noise stops. I do not have the white noise problem with a Karmic box using the same MythTV build. Might give ShaunS's PPA a shot to see how it goes for me tonight. -- white noise or no sound after seeking when using PULSEAUDIO:default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to mythtv in ubuntu. Status in MythTV: Fix Released Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “mythtv” source package in Lucid: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mythtv I have an FE on my laptop. This laptop is also a generic desktop, so I want to use Pulseaudio so that I can get sounds, like chat events, etc... The FE is configured to use PULSEAUDIO:default. If I seek inside a normally playing recording, ffw or rwd, I lose proper audio, getting either white noise (raw digital data?) or no soundat all. Getting out of play mode and starting play again restores proper sound. Selecting an alternative audio channel and coming back to the default one while playing the recording also restores sound.
