I also have problems with Pidgin's notifications causing buzzing sounds on both my Eee PC 900HA and on my desktop machine (I'm just using the on-board sound of the MSI K9A2 CF-F motherboard). A quick workaround I've used for both machines is to install alsaplayer with the text interface and set the sound method in Pidgin to "Command" and use this command to play the sound:
alsaplayer -i text %s Using that, everything sounds fine... no more buzzing sounds. It's just disappointing that this doesn't work correctly right out of the box. -- intermitten buzzing from speakers using hda-intel alsa on dell mini 9 jaunty netbook remix https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342946 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
