grabbed latest kernel from koij and always same issues!!!!
2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.i686.
Music is too fast so buffer becomes empty in Rhythmbox (radio streaming).
Bug already filed.
I wonder when this problem will be solved.....for the time being at
the moment I will revert to older kernels, then I will see......
