A person over here has reported they worked around the problem by
converting all the IT music files to ogg vorbis files, and replacing the
IT files in the data directory.

I'm not a Ubuntu user,  but I'm seeing the same problem occur in Debian
with pingus version 0.7.3 for which the packaging is probably very
similar.  Interestingly it occurs on my 32 bit laptop, but not the amd64
desktop (for the same 0.7.3 version). I haven't confirmed that all
dependencies are the same version, but I did make sure I had all the
latest ones installed on my laptop, to no effect. (Unfortunately the
desktop PC is in a shipping crate, so I can't check it right now.)

I thought it might be something to do with my laptop's mono/stereo not
working properly, such as if everything meant for one side was not being
played. I ruled this out once I found some stereo headphones, and
confirmed that the half of the notes that do play are coming through
alternate sides, so it's not the left side or the right side being
blocked out.

I downloaded the pingus source tar.gz for 0.7.3 and recompiled it, and
am seeing exactly the same problem when built from the upstream source,
so it's probably an upstream issue, unless it's to do with one of the
libraries like libsdl-mixer or anything similar.  I was meaning to check
the pingus-devel mailing list, but their archive's offline right now for
some reason.
