[Bug 1800899] Re: Line out and headphones audio output keep swithing causing crackles in sound
Thanks. It sounds like there is a bad connection in the port on the back panel. That would explain both crackling and flickering settings. The flickering would be Ubuntu quickly detecting spurious insertion/removal or connection/disconnection of the headphones. So this sounds like a hardware problem with that port. ** Package changed: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) => ubuntu ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800899 Title: Line out and headphones audio output keep swithing causing crackles in sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1800899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1800899] Re: Line out and headphones audio output keep swithing causing crackles in sound
Upgrading to Ubuntu 18.10 didn't seem to help. Using a different set of headphones also didn't work. Other audio sources work fine. Unplugging the headphones from the line out port in the back panel of the computer and plugging it in the front headphones port stops the crackling and the flickering in the settings. Headphones work fine now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800899 Title: Line out and headphones audio output keep swithing causing crackles in sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1800899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please try: 1. Booting Ubuntu 18.10 on the machine to see if this bug is already fixed: http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.10/ 2. A different set of headphones. 3. Other audio output methods like the built-in speakers or Bluetooth. Do any of those help? ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800899 Title: Line out and headphones audio output keep swithing causing crackles in sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1800899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
