[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
My investigation has led me to believe this is a pulseaudio/alsa issue. How can I determine which? If it's pulseaudio I might consider just un- installing it. -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
I was able to forcefully reproduce the error instead of waiting for it to happen on it's own. Of course I was running Banshee at the time I did this. I'll need to try this in Rythmbox and Songbird later to confirm a theory. What I did was I started up Banshee and started playing some music. I right clicked the speaker icon in the system tray and clicked Sound Prefernces. Under the Hardware tab I changed the Profile from Analog Stereo Duplex to Digital Stereo (IEC958) Input just to see what would happen and simultaneously causing the error to happen in Banshee. I just changed the Profile to Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo Input. I'll have to see how long my music remains playing. I'll report back if it freezes or not. Right now my belief is that the bug isn't in Rhythmbox but in the new sound system 9.10 is using as this issue effects not just Rhythmbox but also Banshee and Songbird. These 3 programs are the only ones I've tested so far so I can't speak for other music programs. As for Totem it seems totally unaffected by the issue. -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
This is probably not related to my bug submission so I don't know how relevant this information is. But, one change I noticed after changing my sound Profile is that now when I use the mouse to move the primary volume bar on the sound icon in the system tray my audio actually changes this time as before it didn't. Before the only volume bars that had any effect on altering sound where the Alert volume and the volume bars in the Applications tab when music/video software is running. -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
I just played an entire album without Rythmbox screwing up on me. Looks like my theory was correct. The issue was related to the Profile selection in the new sound system. Changing it to [Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo input] seemed to have fixed the problem... so far. knocks on wood Why it was on [Analog Stereo Duplex] as the default, I have no idea but the issue is solved. -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
I think I spoke to soon. I always leave it on loop playing music at night when I sleep and before I could goto bed the software screws up again. I'm starting to wonder if there's a ghost in the machine, because this aggravating thing seems to have a mind of it's own. -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I tried playing music with Banshee and Songbird and they exhibit the same behavior. Should I include debug logs for them to even though this thread is for Rhythmbox? -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

thanks for the report, could you get a rhythmbox debug log with : rhythmbox -D player rhythmbox.txt ; perform the operation to reproduce the bug and attach that resulting file to the report?

[Bug 464458] Re: Music Stops Playing Randomly
This time it only took about 2 seconds to reproduce the problem. But I also had Miro and Totem paused. So I wonder if that helped speed the problem along. My instinct tells me the issue might be related with the new volume control system or what ever you call it, I don't know. ** Attachment added: rhythmbox.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34680200/rhythmbox.txt -- Music Stops Playing Randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
