[Bug 1319233] Re: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking
I had likely same issue on other OS (5.10.19-1) pulseaudio 14.2, alsa, snd_hda_intel What helped was to go to Tools/Preferences/Audio and set Audio output module from Automatic to ALSA Audio Output and device to: HD-Audio Generic, ALC222 Analog Default Audio Device (or set other that plays audio for you when you go to Audio/Audio device menu of your media player.

Linux Lite 2.4 (based on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS) with VLC 2.1.16 has the same problem running pulseaudio. audio/audio track/disable doesn't rectify. Running from terminal has same problem. #13 workaround works though.

[Bug 1319233] Re: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking
This might be related to timing. I'm just saying what I concluded from looking at debug before; when I looked at it more recently, it wasn't obvious which error messages related to audio were relevant or I didn't look at enough of the debug output. If a video is decoded quickly, audio won't stop playing. If it takes too long, there is an error message in debug and audio will stop working. So the way to replicate it, as suggested by the duplicate bug report, is to seek to the end of a long group-of-pictures in a video, just before a keyframe. While switching to ALSA audio output does prevent the problem, it seems to me that there is a small amount of static as audio starts playing again if using the PulseAudio Sound Server as ALSA's output. If using a hardware device, VLC can play files fine by itself, but conflicts with other attempts to use the output device. So if you leave VLC open, and try to play a web video, the video will freeze after a few seconds because it's waiting for audio to start. For me at least, when I start playing a Flash video in Firefox, in my Sound settings (Ubuntu), 'ALSA plug-in [plugin-container' starts up. Similarly, if Flash is already using the audio, VLC will give an error message in the UI (device busy) and audio won't play. I don't notice this burst of static when just using Pulseaudio as output, but it has problems with seeking as described in this bug report. I also only encountered this problem after upgrading, though for me it was from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.10 and I'm not sure what my VLC settings were before, probably just default. I don't get stuttering, the audio just turns off, and only turns back on if another attempt to seek within the video is successful. The workaround is to pause the video just before seeking, and only start playing again once the video decoder has finished or almost finished catching up. But this isn't at all obvious; at first I thought that losing audio was due to problems with handling the VP9 or WebM codecs/formats. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319233 Title: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1319233/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1319233] Re: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking
This does indeed look PulseAudio-related. I'm able to reproduce with the default settings, which outputs to PA, but when I select the ALSA output module and a proper (hardware) device everything is fine. It seems to me that there's a buffer issue, especially because of these lines: [0x195d948] main audio output warning: playback way too early (-398592): playing silence [0x195d948] main audio output debug: inserting 19132 zeroes -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319233 Title: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1319233/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I did a fresh install of 14.04.1 in December, and have this issue as well. I did not have any issue with Xubuntu 14.10. I am still having other sound-related issues though; Ubuntu randomly jumps from HDMI to Analog to No sound at each reboot, but I assumed the VLC error was just an offshoot of that. But, it sounds like this is a different bug altogether.

[Bug 1319233] Re: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking
I'm playing an off-air recording (the Newshour). The video freezes, then the audio stops, then the video restarts, but there's no audio. If I move the cursor on the timeline at the bottom of the screen and click it, the audio and video both restart there. The same thing occurs again at the same points in the recording. It looks to me like vlc is not restarting its audio playback automatically after encountering and passing over a defect in the transmission stream. It does restart its video playback automatically, though. Off-air transmission streams contain many flaws, of course.
