Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The problem appears after upgrading 10.04 to 11.10. Enclosed are pulseaudio syslog entries produced by running: grep -E '(pulseaudio|alsa-sink)' /var/log/syslog > pulseaudio.log To reproduce the bug, create io load spike by running: cat medium_size_file_not_in_filecache > /dev/null .. while playing song with mplayer or rhythmbox. I tried changing scheduler to deadline, but it didn't have much effect. echo "deadline" | sudo tee /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler echo "deadline" | sudo tee /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler echo "deadline" | sudo tee /sys/block/sdc/queue/scheduler I get the skipping even if the file played is (most likely) in filecache. I tried to ensure this by running cat song.flac > /dev/null just before playing the song.
