[Bug 437759] Re: Weird Sound (in notification?) in Karmic
Follow up with this bug: Maybe the lack of some quiet buffer when changing between applications leads to this problem. It seems the sequence when changing application is that pusleaudio first mute that application, and the set the volume to certain value, and then play the sound from that application. On my machine (HP 6515b), the mute-unmute sequence always produce some sound like a short "boo--". (I.e. I can reproduce the weird sound by mute-unmute in the volume control). That seems to be the source of this issue. It might be that this only happens to certain hardware, which I am not sure.

[Bug 437759] [NEW] Weird Sound (in notification?) in Karmic
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pulseaudio Hi, I just installed Karmic Alpha 6 yesterday (upgraded from Jaunty) and I experienced some weird sound problems. It is not with the general playback or capture - rhythmbox, totem, Skype calls are fine. It is with the notification sound. For example, when a new email arrives, the sound will first mute and then unmute (within a milisecond) and the produce a sharp, explosive sound (for a milisecond). Or when some buddy is online in Skype. Or if you type in an terminal, and when there is no character before and you hit backspace (generally, the system should "beep" to indicate an invalid action), there is similar mute-unmute sequence with the explosive sound. But after the first mute-unmute sequence, I will not hear the same in the same application any more. I guess it is more a configuration bug rather than a program bug. It probably results from the default setting being mute, i.e. when pulseaudio switches to the application it first mute the application, and then tries to unmute it to play a sound. Since no application crashed for this, I manually created this bug. Thanks.

[Bug 64666] [Edgy] 5 white blinking stripes when booting on i810 laptop
Public bug reported: Boot splash is supposed to be a brown screen stretched to the whole screen. On my laptop the screen is blank, with five white stripes blinking within a 640*480 (I guess) box in the middle. Specs: SONY PCG-SRX55C (China market model, which should be comparable to SRX99/87 etc) PIII M / 256M / i810 card shared memory Software: Kernel: 2.6.17-386/generic Edgy updated to date Maybe it is framebuffer problem (which may not be able to support my video card to 1024x768) during boot. On Drapper it is fine (black background with Ubuntu icon and messages), but i understand the splash is confined in middle 640*480 square. My solution: delete "splash" in grub config and no boot splash and no problem (which is not ideal). Suggestion: 1. Go back to Drapper splash; and 2. Use black background for splash (unless you are sure that splash will work fine on all supported machines to fill the whole screen, because if resolution is forced to shrink, there will be problem of black background with smaller brown box on LCDs). ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- [Edgy] 5 white blinking stripes when booting on i810 laptop https://launchpad.net/bugs/64666 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
