Thanks for the detailed notes, Daniel. Audio problems can be pretty confusing to debug and any information is helpful.
I'll file a separate bug for the missing microphone digital sensitivity control, I guess against linux-source. Re the wine crackling issue, I tried altering /etc/pulse/daemon.conf's default-fragments to 4 and default-fragment-size-msec to 25 to match my (non-crackling) Hardy configuration, but like Catherine, I still get the crackling/stuttering sound (even after a complete reboot to be absolutely sure everything gets reset), so that doesn't seem to be the problem. Note that the crackling does go away if I reset the audio frequency to 11 kHz instead of 22 or 44 kHz via the game settings in wine. This is with pulseaudio 0.9.10-2ubuntu10~ppa1, alsa-base 1.0.17.dfsg- 2ubuntu1, and wine 1.1.7. -- [intrepid] Wine>=1.1.6 + PulseAudio : alsa is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280534 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
