Hello,
I am currently facing a strange problem with ALSA and Jack. I play
electric guitar sometimes and I use my computer as a medium to output
the sound. For this, I use jack, with alsa as the driver.
Half of the time, everything is just fine, the audio output of my guitar
is just what it should be.
However, sometimes, the sound is completely low, distorted and with a
lot of cracklings and looks to have been produced by an awful and very
old synthesizer.
Most of the time this is happening after I have been watching videos
with mplayer2 (threw smplayer). But strangely enough, this doesn't
happen any times after this.
I have been looking toward to reproduce this, but unfortunately with no
success at all. So I know this won't help to find where the bug is, but
if it is an already well known one (I have very few hopes for this).
For more information, here is my system:
Debian Wheezy AMD64 (with some i386 programs installed as multiarch so
that my printer works), up-to-date, running the latest available kernel
(amd64, no rt).
Graphical environment is XFCE so that I don't have pulseaudio (it is
well known, and I could confirm this, that pulseaudio does not live well
with jack). However, I still have some pulseaudio libs installed (due to
dependencies): libpulse0 (too many dependencies),
libpulse-mainloop-glib0 (for kdevelop, which then needs libphonon).
My sound card is:
02:00.0 Audio device: Creative Labs X-Fi Titanium series [EMU20k2] (rev 04)
Subsystem: Creative Labs SB X-Fi Titanium PCI-e [SB0880]
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 44
