So instead, I tried to erase pulseaudio. That wanted to remove three packages for dependency: Removed: pulseaudio.i686 0:0.9.21-14.el6_3 Dependency Removed: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 0:1.0.21-3.el6 pulseaudio-module-gconf.i686 0:0.9.21-14.el6_3 pulseaudio-module-x11.i686 0:0.9.21-14.el6_3 Then when I re-installed pulseaudio: No package pulseaudio-module available. Installing: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 1.0.21-3.el6 base pulseaudio.i686 0.9.21-14.el6_3 updates pulseaudio-module-gconf.i686 0.9.21-14.el6_3 updates pulseaudio-module-x11.i686 0.9.21-14.el6_3 updates No changes in package revisions but it does seem to have solved my issue. Playback is now nice and smooth. No more dropouts, sputtering, stuttering, or lockups. Who would have thunk it? Thank you to all of you who tried to help. I really appreciate it. -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registerd Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ **** _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
