Same bug here on a 16.04, agw3's workaround doesn't fix the issue for me. It occurs when my browser (firefox 53.0.2 64b) display a google research with google translate content.
The way I fix it is: pulseaudio -k && sudo alsa force-reload It's a bit annoying, I would like to fix it permanently. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997331 Title: Some alsa applications play bad sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/997331/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
