Using a program where you have tight control over setting the audio interface parameters you could find a set of working ones and then try to get your other programs to use similar settings.. Things to try out would be: a] different sampling rates [my first guess would be that 48khz works best] b] opening the audio device playback only c] use a perdiod sizo between 256 and 1024 and rather many periods.. > CPU0 > 0: 3252114 XT-PIC-XT timer > 1: 44971 XT-PIC-XT i8042 > 2: 0 XT-PIC-XT cascade > 3: 178743 XT-PIC-XT uhci_hcd:usb1, ehci_hcd:usb5 > 5: 451891 XT-PIC-XT uhci_hcd:usb4, HDA Intel, This could be a bit problematic if you use the corresponding usb port.. > i915@pci:0000:00:02.0, pciehp > 7: 23 XT-PIC-XT uhci_hcd:usb2 > 9: 68641 XT-PIC-XT acpi > 10: 1638393 XT-PIC-XT uhci_hcd:usb3, pciehp, wifi0 > 11: 3 XT-PIC-XT eth0, pciehp > 12: 887680 XT-PIC-XT i8042 > 14: 0 XT-PIC-XT libata > 15: 44113 XT-PIC-XT libata > NMI: 0 > ERR: 0 Flo -- Palimm Palimm! http://tapas.affenbande.org _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
