ah ha! This is because Ubuntu was selecting an internal sound device for some of the sounds (system sounds, etc) and then using my Audigy for other sounds....despite my manual selection in the Preferences > Sound control panel.
So....I'll try to de-activate the internal sound completely by preventing the driver from loading.... or just switch my speakers over to the crappy internal sound. -- SB0400 Audigy 2 Value issues with latest emu10k1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173621 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
