I have this same problem on a Dell w/ a Creative ca0110-IBG. As the original poster described, running ubuntu-bug fixes it until next reboot, when I have to run it again to get sound working normally.
To be clear, there are dropouts and crackling before running ubuntu-bug to report the issue. The sound skips every other second. When I run ubuntu-bug it takes me through some sound troubleshooting, playing different sounds through the headphones and after it is done, the problems are resolved. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877509 Title: [4286CTO, Creative CA0110-IBG, White Headphone Out, Front] Underruns, dropouts or crackling sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/877509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
