explore recent threads, look at your /var/log/messages and see if our
recent discovery is also your problem?
i have a work around if you are getting alsa bug reports in your
messages file.
hth, jackc...
How about a clue, Jack? So much hokum has been talked that I've been skipping
the sound threads, particularly as everything else plays correctly. I thought
or a moment that I was going to get a whole track played (my problem is in
amarok, but exactly the same as the rhythmbox one). This is what happened:

^C
The moment of the 'Increasing wakeup watermark' message is when it started to
race and crackle.
Is this what you were expecting to see? I so, what's the workaround?
Just out of curiosity, I'll do the same experiment while playing it in
kaffeine, as I have never seen it happen there. It will be interesting to see
whether the same messages appear.
