Description of problem: When playing sound through PA (via any audio-producing program), sound skips pretty badly. When first playing audio after a reboot, this happens maybe once every couple of minutes, then becomes as frequent as once every few seconds. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.14-1 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Play sound through PA Actual results: Sound skips in increasingly-short intervals, up to once every few seconds Expected results: Sound plays normally without skipping Additional info: I highly expect this has to do with my sound card, seeing as the skipping doesn't happen when playing through the integrated Intel audio on my motherboard. I use a Soundblaster Audigy 4 Pro. Also, every time the sound skips, PA (run with highest verbosity) says: I: module-alsa-sink.c: Underrun!
Timing is broken in the Creative sound drivers. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 466314 ***
