I did a fresh install of 14.04.1 in December, and have this issue as well. I did not have any issue with Xubuntu 14.10.
I am still having other sound-related issues though; Ubuntu randomly jumps from HDMI to Analog to No sound at each reboot, but I assumed the VLC error was just an offshoot of that. But, it sounds like this is a different bug altogether. Just wanted to post this as another data point. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319233 Title: audio stutters or stops playing after seeking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1319233/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
