Package: audacious
Version: 2.1-1
Hi,
I ran into a bizarre problem with audio, and I didn't notice it until a few
hours of play :) audio output has been shifted a few notes down and slightly
slowed down, when played through the Audacious ALSA plugin. As soon as I
switch to the OSS output plugin, everything is back to normal.
To make sure it's not ALSA as a whole that's misbehaving, I've tried to
reproduce it with sox(1) (with libsox-fmt-oss and libsox-fmt-alsa), like
this:
% sox /win/WINDOWS/Media/tada.wav -t alsa default
% sox /win/WINDOWS/Media/tada.wav -t oss /dev/dsp
But both of those played the sound correctly -- the same at least, and the
same as the Audacious OSS output -- so I'm thinking Audacious ALSA plugin
is at fault.
I had previously fiddled with buffering settings (because the Audacious
version in lenny and with an older kernel used to skip a lot on this
machine under load), but I don't believe I selected any setting that would
need to cause this kind of distortion.
