Greetings All,

I used to see this in a terminal running custom minimal Ubuntu install. It 
never caused me any operating issues, but I attempted to correct the 
reported underflow. I haven't been running WSJT-X all Summer, because I 
have been doing computer hardware upgrades, and my ham computers HDD's are 
wiped, but as I recall, using alsa-mixer to mute the 1 unnecessary audio 
channel corrected the problem, but... I experimented a lot with my OS 
setup, and in the end I got rid of Pulseaudio. WSJT-X works just fine on a 
ALSA only setup, that is, no pulseaudio. Again, this is all from recalling 
my OS installation setup. I am inclined to think that muting the unused 
audio channel will correct this issue, as Signalink only using 1 channel. I 
believe.

It is also possible that using the Ubuntu 15.04, and later might also 
correct this issue, I say that because I tend to use the latest and 
greatest Ubuntu release, currently 15.10, and that has all the latest QT 
updated software as well. I was using 15.10 this last Spring 2015 with 
WSJT-X, and I know for certain, I stopped seeing this "underflow" issue 
reported in the terminal, everything was working perfectly. The latest 
WSJT-X dev. releases of that time period.

I'll be up and running WSJT-X again real soon.

I hope this helps.

73, John, N1ISA
