Bug#318169: Broken sound via artsdsp and Flash

[Sam Vilain <sam@vilain.net>]

Package: libarts1
Version: 1.3.2-4
Severity: normal

Running mozilla-firefox inside artsdsp, so that flash animations (etc)
can be played via artsdsp is giving inconsistent playback quality.

To reproduce;

  - run up artsd

  - set some soft background music, that your boss likes, going in
    xmms playing via xmms-arts

  - start mozilla-firefox with artsdsp

  - go to
    http://www.bullshitjob.com/officespace/LumberghOfficeSpace.swf

  - for best effect, wait for your boss to ask you to do something, or
    otherwise say something which could almost be or is a quote from
    Office Space (1999), then click the button corresponding to what
    he just said on the sound board.

The sound comes out, but it sounds broken up and jerky.

The correct behaviour would be to play back the sound unbroken, so
that he hears what he just said played back to him, but layered in low
over the softcock music.

Thanks,
Sam.
