Package: libarts1 Version: 1.3.0-1 Severity: important
Hi, On PowerPC, arts output (KDE system event sounds) start off with what sounds like whitenoise. Towards the end of the sample, the intended sound becomes more audible through the noise, but it never clears up. Also... I'm guessing this is related, but perhaps not: artsd crashes very frequently, giving a KDE crash dialog. The backtrace gives no useful information, but I'm assuming it has something to do with the bad audio. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 Versions of packages libarts1 depends on: ii libartsc0 1.3.0-1 aRts Sound system C support librar ii libasound2 1.0.5-1 Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ii libaudio2 1.6d-2 The Network Audio System (NAS).
