Sound gets the occassional 'beep' coming through

2001-01-13 Thread Daniel O'Connor
When I play music (or at least mp3's) I get a beep at random intervals. It lasts for <1/10th of a second and is sometimes in the left or right. It seems to be that the the beep is caused by a block of audio being played very fast because the beep occurs and the audio pauses for a fraction of a s
