The wifi I tried disabling the sound quaility is still bad when doing anything display intensive. I havent tried disabling alsa altogether to see if the wifi is still dropping..
I wanna say when I first come up with MSI fixed version it sounds fine, youtube also sounds normal, but if I make the unity taskbar show up, then it goes into some sort of bad state where sound is bad again..maybe the clock switch in the gpu clock or cpu? Not sure.... I need to do some more experiments, haven't had the time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571770 Title: Thread [hd-audio0] consuming excessive amounts of CPU, audio crackling Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic Sometimes during audio playback, a kernel thread named "[hd-audio0]" will consume excessive amounts of CPU and cause audio crackling. It seems to be more easily triggered when displaying video in fullscreen (or Rhythmbox visualizations) or dragging windows around while playing music, somehow relating it graphics operations (running default radeon driver with KMS and Compiz). This all started after moving from Ubuntu Karmic to Lucid (never had this problem before). Setting package to kernel, since it's probably alsa snd_hda_intel kernel module which is to blame. Ubuntu 10.04 x86, Intel Core Duo 2GHz, 3GB RAM, ATI X1400 Radeon Mobility graphics. Audio chip: Analog Devices AD1981 [HDA] WORKAROUND: Disabling radeon KMS makes all the audio crackling go away. Attaching: * Screenshot of top running over Rhythmbox w/fullscreen visualizations, showing [hd-audio0] consuming more CPU than everything else at the time (audio crackles). * Output of "lspci -vvnn" * Output of "dmesg" * Contents of /proc/interrupts * ALSA info, as provided by the alsa-info.sh script.
