@Mlt, if you remove pulseaudio, you also remove the mixing functionality, that allows more than one application to have sound at a specific point in time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Thanks for the suggestion -it certainly helps and reduces the occurences of distortion. Having said that, launching REkonq to write this did cause some problems, so there seems to be a resources issue somehow? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which

further weirdness - if I switch off desktop effects, the sound is fine. Are these using resources in a different way than previously and is this intended? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Have the same problem here. This happened on both my two T60 Notebooks. It started out after updating them to Natty. One was running Lucid, the other one a Maverick before. Have to validate, but I think dropping pulse-audio did fix it. Will follow up when I know more. -- You received this bug

Ok, thanks for the comments. If you're up for more time-consuming tasks, you could try bisecting - first thing to try if so would be to start off with Maverick, verify that it works fine, then install this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules, reboot, and see if the

Having spent the day fiddling, an update on this. This is not a hardware fault as an install of 10.10 works fine (with gnome and kde) I updated to 11.04 and the problem came back in KDE, I'm not able to log into unity or gnome so I can't test whether it works outside of KDE! I tried xine and

Hmm, this is nothing I've heard about before and I don't really know how to attack the problem, but we should try to figure out where in the chain it appears. You don't have too high volume somewhere causing digital distortion? Is the problem present is you try another sound card (e g USB

I tried the command below and there is a nice clean tone broken up intermittently by interference like noise about 1/4 - 1/2 a second long. I tried all the volume controls and they didn't change distortion. I have just tried this with the latest SUSE live CD and that also has distortion.
