Description James 2010-03-23 21:41:42 UTC
Description of problem:
Adjusting volume of paused stream causes audible crackling in another stream that is currently playing. This seems particularly pronounced if the two streams have different sample rates.

(Seen on Intel HDA with Realtek ALC 883 codec, and ATI IXP audio.)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pulseaudio-0.9.21-5.fc12.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start two streams, A and B.
2. Pause stream A in such a way that it remains open.
3. Adjust the volume of the stream A in Sound Preferences.
  
Actual results:
Crackling in stream B.

Expected results:
No crackling.

Comment 1 James 2010-05-26 22:01:41 UTC
Still present in F13, pulseaudio-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2011-06-02 15:59:36 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 13.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '13'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

My sound crackles too. In F15 on my EeePC 901, but it seems nobody cares. 
Killing pulse audio and letting systemd start it again fixes the issue for a while.

Comment 4 James 2012-05-19 11:09:55 UTC
This is still present under Fedora 17 with pulseaudio-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64, and this is with new hardware -- Conexant CX20585 codec.

This has been around quite a while, reporting upstream to see if it fares better there.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2013-08-01 16:38:33 UTC
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
