Bug#259817: libarts1: boink noises during playback of music mp3s
Package: libarts1
Version: 1.2.3-1
Severity: important
I believe this is a bugs in libarts1 because it occurs when using juK
and Kaboodle and anything else that pipes its output to arts but not in
Alsaplayer, for instance, and others that pipe output directly to my alsa
subsystem. It is not noticable during playback of files like the one
used to test the sound on the control module for arts. It is however
noticable on almost any rock song you might be able to pick. What it
sounds like is boink when loud parts of the song, especially drum hits,
play. Instead of the usual drum crash it will go boink. I am on an IBM
T22 Thinkpad Laptop with a Cirrus Logic CS4297A rev 4 chip using kernel
2.6.7's alsa Sound Fusion CS46xx driver. My arts settings are: run with
realtime priority=yes; Sound buffer=371 milliseconds (16 fragments with
4096 bytes); Auto suspend if idle for 0 seconds; Audio Output=ALSA;
Sound Quality=16 bits(high); Full Duplex; and Default sampling rate.
This problem would be barely noticable to the untrained ear and has
started about since I upgraded to Kde 3.2.3.
