Public bug reported:
Sound issues started after Intrepid upgrade. I use digital out on my
dock station. My /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file contains additional
"options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660-digout position_fix=1" line. It
enables my IEC958 out. Since intrepid gnome-volume-control has
additional IEC968 Default PCM which I've also enabled.
Typical scenarios
a)
1. Launching Rhythmbox and playing Internet radio
2. Launching Tremulous game.
After ~30 min sound fails with snipper sound effect, and Tremulous logs "sound
dropping". Finally everything def.
b)
Closing laptop's lid.
I spotted only one implication. The gnome-volume-control misses some
audio devices (after), while gnome-sound-properties contains all of
them. When default (detect automatically) enabled - sound plays only
from built-in speakers. If I change device to my HDA Intel ALC-660VD
Digital (ALSA) and test it - sound keeps playing. If I play an aplay wav
file or Totem etc. it also plays well.
I thought that it is a system wide issue including pulseaudio, alsa,
gstreamer and drivers. However I did notice that when I restart gdm
session everything comes back to normal.
