Eliana,

Are you using PEBL 0.14 or 2.0?  This change moved to an updated
graphics/sound/input library, and there were a couple changes that may
have impacted audio--both fixing some past issues and maybe introducing
new ones.  This could stem from a number of things, including how your
audio files are encoded (what rate, stereo, etc.) and whether they are
all of the same format.  In addition, there are two audio playback
systems available in 0.14 (only one in 2.0), and so I can't diagnose
what is happening unless I know exactly which system and function call
you are using. Generally this can sometimes be avoided if you pad
silence at the end of an audio file, or play around with Play and
PlayBackground().  However, it could also stem from bugs in drivers or
audio decoding hardware on the particular tablet you are using as well.


Can you:
1. tell me which version of PEBL you are using
2. Send me a .zip file with the task you are using, or a pared-down one
in which includes just the critical code?

You might also try moving from 0.14 to 2.0 or from 2.0 to 0.14 and see
if the same issues still arise.


Thanks,
Shane
