I am also experiencing this bug. Playback in Audacity is fast/garbled and causes Audacity to crash external usb soundcard - Behringer UCA202 Ubuntu 15.10 Audacity 2.0.6 from repos or 2.1.2 manually installed
similar to N.J, my terminal is filled with the warning: ALSA lib pcm.c:7905:(snd_pcm_recover) underrun occurred (workaround) open the file ~/.config/pulse/daemon.conf - if that file doesn't exist, create it: cp /etc/pulse/daemon.conf ~/.config/pulse/daemon.conf - add this line to the bottom of the file and save it: default-fragment-size-msec = 2 - restart pulse: pulseaudio -k decreasing the fragment size from the default of 25ms to 2ms probably increases the likelihood of stuttering if the system is under load, but I have not noticed any problems yet. The "default-fragments" value also has an influence, some values generate the problem and some don't, regardless of the fragment size value. I don't experience the error when default-fragments is on the default of 4 so I leave it unset.
