Removing alsa-plugins-pulseaudio (rpm -e alsa-plugins-pulseaudio), sound is no problem. Does alsa-pulgins(or alsa-lib) conflict with pulseaudio? Seems as if snd_pcm_rewind() is broken in the emu10k1 driver. Reassigning to ALSA/kernel. Reassigning to alsa-lib? http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11644#c1 ------- Comment #1 From Takashi Iwai 2008-10-07 06:43:04 [reply] ------- I guess it's rather a problem of alsa-lib. The bug in snd_pcm_rewind() was fixed recently. Make sure that you have alsa-lib-1.0.17a or 1.0.18-rc*. Please update alsa-lib git snapshot for emu10k1 driver? http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11644#c2 ------ Comment #2 From sangu 2008-10-27 07:12:19 [reply] ------- (In reply to comment #1) > I guess it's rather a problem of alsa-lib.

After downgrading just this package to the F9 version the problem disappears: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.16-4.fc9.i386 I noticed this doesn't happen if I don't open pavucontrol. Playing music is fine, then if I open pavucontrol, it starts skipping. If I close pavucontrol, the skipping mostly stops. kernel-2.6.27.4-68.fc10.i686 alsa-lib-1.0.18-6.rc3.fc10.i386 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-1.rc3.fc10.i386 pulseaudio-0.9.13-6.fc10.i386 *** Bug 469591 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I'm the reporter of bug 469591 and I'm seeing the same problem with the ice1712 driver. I only see it when directly playing through the pulseaudio plugin of Audacious though. After installing alsa-plugins-pulseaudio and then using the alsa plugin of Audacious the problem went away. Just after I posted the above I got the skipping again with the following messages: I: module-alsa-sink.c: Underrun! N: module-alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 23.95 ms I: module-alsa-sink.c: Underrun! N: module-alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 47.89 ms I: module-alsa-sink.c: Underrun!

This was with the latest version of alsa-plugins-pulseaudio. So I went ahead and replaced it with the version mentioned in comment #9. This time it took several minutes until I got the above messages but once the wakeup watermark was set to 71.27 ms the underruns and the skipping began to appear very frequently. It seems to be the same bug. I had updated to fedora 10 five hours ago and after that this problem occurs. There is some output for "pulseaudio -vv": ...

Occurs here as well with snd_hda_intel (ICH8 HDA audio). Mainly stuff going through the alsa plug-in is affected, although some direct pulse apps also suffer from it (primarily flash through the libflashsupport hook). This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Same problem here, snd_hda_intel. It's really annoying. I installed alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.16-4.fc9.i386 as recommended above, and it made the problem go away. But it caused wine to start crashing randomly, with various assertations failed inside the alsa libraries. Reproducible here, fully up to date F10. Lots of "Have to rewind X bytes on render memblockq." and sound skipping. I switched from a PCI Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 to some USB audio thing (which PA did for me on the fly of course!) and now I can enjoy my music again, but there's clearly some bug somewhere. Suggestion on debugging welcome.

I have an hda_intel and I'm *not* having this problem, but one of the first things I did after installing Fedora 10 was add my user to the "pulse-rt" group. Does that fix anything for anybody?

D: main.c: Can realtime: yes, can high-priority: yes Whatever the problem is, pavuconrol certainly seems to tickle it. I'm running F10 (with a 2.8.28-rc9 kernel) with an Audigy2, things are fine until you startup pavucontrol (note: under Fedora 8 & 9 I have no problems with it.) sound becomes choppy. I tried disabling timer based scheduling and that was much worse, as soon as pavucontrol is started the audio got very choopy and after a few seconds the whole thing just bombed with a "connection refused message" and lots of these from pulseaudio -vv AO: [pulse] pa_stream_write() failed: Connection terminated 0.7% 218 0 AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_write() failed: Connection terminated 0.7% 218 0 AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_write() failed: Connection terminated 0.7% 218 0 AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_get_latency() failed: Connection terminated AO: [pulse] pa_stream_write() failed: Connection terminated 0.7% 218 0 As someone else eluded to, I think the volume meter is a large cause/trigger of the problems. I take it there is no simple way to disable it? Correction, those errors where from mplayer not pavucontrol. As another data point, things seem to behave OK with the pavucontrol from F9. pulseaudio takes 1.7-2.0% cpu and the F9 pavucontrol is negligible. While with the F10 pavucontrol, pulseaudio goes upto 20% cpu and pavucontrol takes 10%. Disabling PulseAudio timer-based scheduling fixes this for me. I followed the instructions available at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GlitchFreeAudio (In reply to comment #30) > Disabling PulseAudio timer-based scheduling fixes this for me. > > I followed the instructions available at: > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GlitchFreeAudio I tried that (snd_intel_hda, Realtek 883) and it got rid of the cracking when using pavucontrol, but eventually I run into something resembling the 100%-CPU-and-die bug 462200. After adding the "tsched" parameter I get problems playing back videos through alsa. Mplayer freezes about 1 second into the video and VLC plays the video but the audio get chopped up severly.

The recent update to alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-2, which contains 1.0.18 final (instead of 1.0.18rc3 from the previous alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-1.rc3) fixed this issue for me. I have similar problems in F11 rawhide. alsa-plugins-1.0.18-2.fc11 installed. Does this package include alsa-lib 18a??? Anyway sparkles are very reduced in respect to some time ago.... Running 2.6.28-3.fc11.i686 kernel I still get pops and clicks when using the PulseAudio volume control. Versions: kernel-2.6.29-0.43.rc2.git1.fc11.x86_64 kernel-2.6.27.12-170.2.2.fc10.x86_64 alsa-lib-1.0.18-7.fc10.x86_64 alsa-lib-1.0.18-7.fc10.i386 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-2.fc10.x86_64 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-2.fc10.i386 pulseaudio-0.9.14-2.fc10.x86_64 pavucontrol-0.9.7-3.fc10.x86_64 I still have some a few interruptions after installing alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-lib-development 1.0.19-1.fc11.i386. alsa-plugins-pulseaudio is still 18. Much better situation than before. Then I introduced the tsched=0 option in pulseaudio and now things seem fine. Running on hda intel, and kernel 2.6.28-3.fc11.i686. I do not know what I am missing with tsched 0 option :-) Created attachment 329515 [details]
pulseaudio -vv
After latest updates and tsched 0
The combination 2.6.28.1-17.fc10.x86_64 alsa-lib-1.0.19-1.fc10.x86_64 shows some improvement, but I still hear glitches when using pavucontrol, and still see "module-alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write!" messages. Created attachment 329586 [details] pulseaudio -vvvv log for Comment #41 I've attached the output of pulseaudio -vvvv for the config in Comment #41 (using Realtek ALC 883 hardware). Note that the overruns/underruns are more frequent when the volume control is running. The sound get normal after cd mv .pulse pulse_old mv .pulse-cookie pulse-cookie_old Alex Can the update of xine-lib (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=470568) also solve this issue?, the problems described with sparky sound is simular, i also got logs in syslog before the latest update: Jan 24 08:44:18 localhost pulseaudio[3021]: module-alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write! Most likely this is an ALSA driver bug. Please report this issue to the PulseAudio developers. Just a thought... There are now detailed fix and workaround instructions for anybody experiencing this at: http://www.fedorafaq.org/f10/#sound-pops Feel free to point people there if they continue to experience this problem and need a workaround. Since this only tends to happen when tsched is enabled, is there any chance that this might be a kernel timer bug? Fixed in pulseaudio-0.9.15-8.test7.fc11? Music play works well (no spark). $ uname -r 2.6.29-21.fc11.i686.PAE Works for me too. Absolutely not for me. With pulseaudio-0.9.15-8.test7.fc11.x86_64, sound jumps around all over the place (worse than F10) no matter what media player is being used. This is with kernel-2.6.29.1-54.fc11.x86_64 on Intel HDA/Realtek hardware. Created attachment 338547 [details] pulseaudio -vvvv output for comment #49 Hmm... comment #49 might be dubious. If I boot nohz=off, audio runs smoothly. On my notebook, the problems might be cpuidle/timer related, cf. bug 443155. Based on comments 45, 47, 48, and 51, I believe this bug should no longer have status NEW. I'd guess that CLOSED is appropriate, but can someone more familiar with triage practices here please suggest the best resolution?

That was wrong; the problem actually persisted until the most recent f10 version. However, I now yum upgraded to f11. The problem with the sparks seems to be gone, however, /var/log/messages still contains entries like these: Jun 18 20:13:48 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 1.00 ms Jun 18 20:14:33 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 2.00 ms Jun 18 20:15:32 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 4.00 ms Jun 18 20:15:32 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 8.00 ms Jun 18 20:15:35 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 16.00 ms Jun 18 20:15:36 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 26.00 ms Jun 18 20:15:42 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 15.99 ms Jun 18 20:36:28 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 36.00 ms Jun 18 20:36:29 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 25.99 ms Jun 18 20:45:29 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 46.00 ms Jun 18 20:48:24 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 35.99 ms Jun 18 20:48:29 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: Increasing minimal latency to 56.00 ms Jun 18 20:53:53 helen pulseaudio[2320]: alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write!
