Hmm... I don't think so as I have different symptoms. In bug #301755 it sounds like they are reporting interference from the rest of the system causing a crackling noise. In my case the only sound that is emitted is the crackling. Please let me know if I'm mistaken.
However, upon further investigation, this does seem to be related to PulseAudio. If I go to GNOME Sound preferences and change "Sound playback" and for Sound Events and Music and Movies to "HDA Intel STAC92xx Analog (OSS)" it works just fine. If I choose "HDA Intel STAC92xx Analog (ALSA)" I get absolutely nothing. Only when I choose PulseAudio or Autodetect do I get the crackling noise instead of the proper sound. I looked at the work around in that other bug and the logic already seems to be there in /etc/pulse/default.pa: ### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available .ifexists module-hal-detect.so load-module module-hal-detect tsched=0 .else ### Alternatively use the static hardware detection module (for systems that ### lack HAL support) load-module module-detect .endif -- Only crackling sound on jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331480 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
