But `mplayer -ao pulse` shows the problem. Symptoms: - audio stops for fractions of a second - the music hangs and the last fraction of a second is repeated, like a echo. It is impossible to hear anything, just turns me crazy!

[Bug 572580] Re: Video Playback in lucid stuttering
Hi, I have the same problem, both in 9.10 and 10.04, and both after fresh installs. When I play mp3 files or video in banshee, rhythmbox, mplayer, or vlc the sound skips/stutters randomly during the song (every 20 seconds to 1 minute). I installed the following codecs and programs after the 10.04 install: sudo apt-get install ubuntu restricted extras sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh sudo apt-get install mplayer smplayer sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-pulse When I remove pulseaudio using system76's code (below) the stuttering stops in both audio and video. touch ~/.pulse-a11y-nostart echo autospawn = no|tee -a ~/.pulse/client.conf killall pulseaudio When I enable pulseaudio (below) the stuttering begins again. rm ~/.pulse-a11y-nostart rm ~/.pulse/client.conf I started this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1471262 to see if anybody had some answers. Based on that I have tried the following to no avail: 1) Tweaked the default-fragments and default-fragment-size-msec default values in the file /etc/pulse/daemon.conf 2) sudo dpkg-reconfigure pulseaudio 3) Changed realtime priority from 5 to 8 in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf 4) Added tsched=0 to load-module module-hal-detect in system.pa I am attaching a bit of the user log when I watch video with pulse and it stutters. It seems I get a lot of the following statements: May 19 14:11:38 coldwater-laptop pulseaudio[1478]: ratelimit.c: 5 events suppressed May 19 14:40:07 coldwater-laptop pulseaudio[1424]: pid.c: Daemon already running.

It appears that a significant number of us are having problems with pulse and that there is no ready solution. Is there either a way to fix this bug and continue using pulse or to disable pulse and do the following. 1) Fully disable pulse and install whatever replacement alsa packages are required 2) Setup up alsa so that one can change the volume controls with the fn F7,F8 3) Install an alsa applet for the top panel so one can switch inputs, outputs etc, 4) Change the loudness or gain. When under pulse I could keep the volume around 2/3 and it was plenty loud. Under alsa, it is up all the way and it is not loud enough.

I'm a Second Life user and I have found after some hours of powering on the laptop, I get up to 5-6 seconds sound delay with Second Life Viewer or Emerald viewer.

[Bug 572580] Re: Video Playback in lucid stuttering
By the way, today I found the proof that it is definetly Pulseaudio's fault: MPD usually uses ALSA by default. I tried to switch the output device to Pulseaudio, and immediently got stuttering when playing music. Switching back to ALSA solved it there.

[Bug 572580] Re: Video Playback in lucid stuttering
I just spotted another symptom which may help to find the source of the problem if it is related. After playing a video, I started QuakeLive and the sound in there was delayed by about 1 or 2 seconds. After killing pulseaudio, the audio delay was gone. Killing pulseaudio did not solve the problem with the video stuttering, but I assume that this bug is related to pulseaudio now. ** Package changed: ubuntu = pulseaudio (Ubuntu) -- Video Playback in lucid stuttering https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572580 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
