my 2 cents - I played with alsa/pulse switching in the options... the same noise.
then I turned the Dolby surround off ( was Auto before that ) - noise. ( After each )settings change I restart vlc ) Finally I turned the dolby surround on and - no noise initially but on the second restart noise again. After I hear the noise if I rewind forward on back or if I pause and resume or I play with the playback speed I can stop the noise but it comes again in 10 secs usually.... bye bye vlc - will look to use another player for a while until someone fixes it. I can fund this bugfix with 50 euro if somebody can fix it.... ubuntu precise on a dell xps 15 l502x with xfce4 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772720 Title: extreme noise with sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/772720/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
