I also experience similar sound problems on Ubuntu 12.04. In my case, it seems like there are random sound glitches (e.g. every 5 to 10 minutes) during the playback of any audio. It happens in Audacious (audio player) as well as in SMplayer (video player) or also in Google Chrome when playing videos on YouTube.
The glitches sound like a short bit of currently played music (like a quarter, maybe half of a second) repeated several (3, maybe 4) times and then the playback normally continues. I didn't notice any association of this problem with sound volume. But since I have it set to the maximum for the most of the time and adjust the volume on speakers only, I might have just missed it. On the other hand, I have the impression that at least in my case, this problem only occurs when using Gnome 3. I would appreciate if anyone could confirm or deny this. When I have tried to use Unity or Gnome 2, I didn't notice any sound glitches at all. And if the usage of Gnome 3 is related, I am afraid that this might not be a bug in alsa-driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988804 Title: Sound problem in Ubuntu 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/988804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
