Hi Nihal don't know about FC2, but I can confirm that sound quality depends on the distribution/kernel used, where I didn't figure out yet why. I myself have FC3 and Debian Sarge with 2.6.8 kernel on the same machine, and under both OS I compiled and installed an identical asterix cvs version. While the FC3 installation works alright regarding sound, I see the same problems you described on Debian. I.e. the demo voice is crackling and has delays (short moments of silence). A tcpdump showed me that during those 'skips' actually no packets are transferred from the asterix server to the client machine. So somewhere on the server that voice data is buffered resp. delayed, god knows why. As said, the same asterisk version works alright with FC3 on the same machine. I even logged and compared the make runs on both OS, but there are no notable differences. Might be kernel, some external library, I have no idea actually at this point.
