From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: Since FC3 my XMMS make strange noises while playing (especially loud parts) music. I therefore had switched to different players, but as Totem often crashes and others do not have a good playlist I want to go back to XMMS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. play a music file with different output plugins (OSS/ALSA,...) Actual Results: strange noises on the top of the loudness Expected Results: no noises Additional info: The problems seems to be with every output plugin. XMMS is the only player that has this problem. I also use Totem, Rhythmbox, VLC, Mplayer, Realplayer, Helixplayer.
Try it in FC4 (yum install xmms). If still buggy, attach output of 'lscpi -vv' and specify what sound output plugin you are using (esd, alsa...)
I did not get this again
