Ok, not too sure this is what you had in mind but I've added this: diff --git a/sound/usb/endpoint.c b/sound/usb/endpoint.c index 21dc642..a6c9ec4 100644 --- a/sound/usb/endpoint.c +++ b/sound/usb/endpoint.c @@ -687,6 +687,10 @@ static int data_ep_set_params(struct snd_usb_endpoint *ep, if (fmt->fmt_type == UAC_FORMAT_TYPE_II) u->packets++; /* for transfer delimiter */ + + printk(KERN_DEBUG "urb:%u/%u u->packets:%u u->buffer_size:%u", + i, ep->nurbs, u->packets, u->buffer_size); + u->urb = usb_alloc_urb(u->packets, GFP_KERNEL); if (!u->urb) goto out_of_memory; 1) With the patch (linux-stable/976b6c064a957445eb0573b270f2d0282630e9b9) - 16/192 wav (your sample), aplay, not specifying any buffer size (sound ok): [ 642.910928] urb:0/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910933] urb:1/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910936] urb:2/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910937] urb:3/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910939] urb:4/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910940] urb:5/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910941] urb:6/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910942] urb:7/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910943] urb:8/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910945] urb:9/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910946] urb:10/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 642.910947] urb:11/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 - 24/192 wav, aplay, not specifying any buffer size (sound with lots of crackles): [ 52.080173] urb:0/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080177] urb:1/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080181] urb:2/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080182] urb:3/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080183] urb:4/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080184] urb:5/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080185] urb:6/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080187] urb:7/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080188] urb:8/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080189] urb:9/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080191] urb:10/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 52.080192] urb:11/12 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 - 24/192 wav, aplay --buffer-size=512 (sound ok): [ 801.149194] urb:0/4 u->packets:7 u->buffer_size:1092 [ 801.149197] urb:1/4 u->packets:7 u->buffer_size:1092 [ 801.149199] urb:2/4 u->packets:7 u->buffer_size:1092 [ 801.149200] urb:3/4 u->packets:7 u->buffer_size:1092 2) Without the patch (linux-stable/e8bc99425e8159cd5f56bb76419158857bd358ed) - 16/192 wav (your sample), aplay, not specifying any buffer size (sound ok): [ 27.424084] urb:0/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424088] urb:1/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424090] urb:2/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424092] urb:3/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424093] urb:4/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424094] urb:5/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424096] urb:6/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 [ 27.424096] urb:7/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:832 - 24/192 wav, aplay, not specifying any buffer size (sound with rare crackles): [ 80.794497] urb:0/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794501] urb:1/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794504] urb:2/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794506] urb:3/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794507] urb:4/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794509] urb:5/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794510] urb:6/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 [ 80.794511] urb:7/8 u->packets:8 u->buffer_size:1248 - 24/192 wav, aplay --buffer-size=512 (sound ok): [ 150.570855] urb:0/2 u->packets:3 u->buffer_size:468 [ 150.570858] urb:1/2 u->packets:4 u->buffer_size:624 -- Julien Benoist ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
