i experience the same thing too. mp3 files often skipping when played from rhythmbox, banshee, and audacious. changing the default gstreamer to alsa didn't cure all skipping, only minimize it. set the default rate to 44100 in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf only minimize the skipping too.
i use ubuntu 10.04 32-bit desktop edition, and on amd 780g motherboard using realtek chipset (gigabyte ga-ma78gm-us2h). funny thing, this bug didn't occur on intel 945g chipset (asus p5gc- mx/1333). -- Audio skipping since 10.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/582329 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
