I installed a patched 3.2.6 version from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ekiga/+bug/332543/comments/20 , which fixes me not being able to call.
When I call the echo test, I get video but no audio at all. The volume change icon below the video stays greyed out. When I try to play a test sound (in the sound events preferences section) through the default device with pulseaudio enabled, that works fine the first time. When I repeatedly play a sound, it works fine for the first 10 seconds or so, after that it starts crackling. If I continue playing the test sound, the crackling stays for another 2 to 20 seconds, and then sound stops and ekiga hangs at 100% cpu. The UI also becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it. Banshee is having no trouble playing music at the same time, so PulseAudio is not having any problems. When I try to play a test sound through the "HDA Intel (PTLIB/ALSA)" device with pulseaudio suspended or pulseaudio enabled but not actually playing anything at that moment, I get sound but it is as if every 50 ms sample gets repeated for 5 seconds before ekiga decides to play the next 50 ms part. Ekiga still advances through the sound file, but veeeeerrrrryyyy slowly and stuttery. This behaviour is the same I had with PulseAudio under Jaunty when I tried to play any kind of sound after my laptop resumed from a suspend. Killing PA every time I resumed was a workaround there. In Karmic this PA problem was fixed. -- Ekiga hangs when using pulseaudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112948 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
