After the latest upgrade of mpg123 and mpg123-pulse from 1.25.10 to 1.31.3 and pulseaudio from 11.1 to 16.1 pulseaudio output in mpg123 became unusable - stuttering and stopping all the time with no significant CPU load. Downgrading mpg123 without downgrading pulseaudio didn't resolve this issue, so it looks like pulse is to blame. It is an HP 840 G6 notebook with realtek sound chip and windows 10.
I should add that I started using pulse because with default settings mpg123 reacted to keyboard commands after a huge delay and Takashi Yano suggested using pulseaudio, which worked fine. I tried the default device (output_win32.dll) again, and it works fine now, so for me resolving this issue has no practical merit, still, not nice. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
