Just to clarify the sound problem in system>preferences>sound - if I put all options on autodetect and press 'test sound' I hear a crackling/static sort of noise, the same if I change sound playback to ALSA or pulseaudio. However if sound playback is changed to OSS I hear a perfect test tone.
I have tried the methods described here: HOWTO: PulseAudio Fixes (distilled) - *Updated, Call For Testing!* - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866965 which it seems Luke is involved with. Alas this has not helped at all. I'm currently using a dell inspiron 1525 - the ones dell ship with ubuntu preinstalled so I imagine this could potentially effect quite a few ubuntu users! -- audio only crackles and ALSA hangs on shutdown - Intrepid Ibex on Dell Inspiron 1525 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294160 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
