I can confirm that changing VLC's settings to something other than
'Default' for audio is a successful workaround, but if 'Default' causes
problems then that's a bug!

The question is : why is vlc the only one that is having this problem ?
are others using another library ?
And some of the users commenting this bug do not get any improvement by
changing the output lib to OSS or ESD ( those are alternative to alsa ) .
I can accept it as rejected on vlc side onl
vlc simply uses alsa-lib's "default". Rejecting vlc task.

An excellent fix has been posted on the Ubuntu forums. Install the
"vlc-plugin-esd" and use the "EsounD audio output" as output module.
The EsounD audio output not only fixes the crackling problem but it also fixes
the problem of only being able to get sound in one VLC window at the time.

To me it seems that crimsun is right, problem is in alsa-lib. I just rebuilt

I'm trying to pinpoint the exact patch that's causing this. Can anyone verify

I would just like to add that the "hw:0,0" ALSA device or the OSS output module
both do fix the crackling problem but unfortunately it's only a partial
solution.
When using either of these solutions you can only have sound in only one
application at the time. What I mean by that is when you play
VLC is the only application I have this issue. Rhythmbox and amarok both
play a .mp3 file without the issue, but in VLC "Default ALSA device"
produces cracking sound (hw0,0 sounds normal).
Default Device:

bitrate:128

Possibly alsa-lib. Bumping Importance.

Strike that, problem persists after decoding mp3 to wav using lame, so
the problem is indeed in VLC's audio output. Hope this gets fixed, this
