I had some issues using my Pundit-R system (uses the IXP150 sound) which I solved by both installed ALSA 1.0.8 and playing with the soundcard buffering options in the frontend setup. I also use SPDIF to connect to my receiver and no longer have any problems (apart from MythMusic) > > The corruption is a little bit of squelch before silence with videos, > and it "jumps" with music.

The files are fine because they play fine on my Windows boxes. If I rewind maybe 20s and then let it play again, the jump is absent, but then it may jump further through the track, losing maybe 30s of music. I have no problems using MythVideo (using ALSA) and LiveTV and recordings playback perfectly. I asked a while back about when MythMusic was going full ALSA, but the answer I got was 'what's wrong with OSS'... The real frustrating thing is that I can't predict when a skip will occur, so trying to enjoy of whole album usually has me reaching for the CD player instead.
