The recipe can slightly be improved using amixer -D hw:DSP cset 'iface=CARD,name=Precise Pointer' On since that would be more symbolical and would likely do nothing to cards not in possession of such a control. I did some more experiments, and Flash Video continues to have skips. However, the previous artifacts sounded like wraparounds. The current ones apparently correspond to skipped frames. I have no idea why Flash would skip frames when there seems to be enough buffer of original content available, but maybe the codecs don't keep up. Right now I have a hard time convincing firefox/pulseaudio to try the builtin sound card for comparison. -- David Kastrup
