It's known to have caused _me_ endless troubles ;) It's possible that E
is trying to output sound via esound, causing the clicks. Can you try
removing esound and disabling E & gnome sound to see if it helps ? (At
least, we would then know if esound is the culprit).
I disabled X and rebooted my machine. It still clicks and pops.
How sure are you that the clicks and pops come from the speakers? My HD also
makes some funny noise from time to time... :)
99.9999% sure. It is definately a speaker sound and it's coming from
the area where the speakers are located. It sounds like a very quick
square wave input is being applied to the speakers. ie. some kind of
large applitude electrical spike.
What hardware/chipsets are the speakers connected to ? ie. What
hardware is programmable that controls audio ??
Thanks,
