Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pulseaudio
Pulseaudio randomly pauses for about 5-6 seconds, then continues the playback normally. Sometimes, it simply dies. It seems that this happens more frequently on higher CPU/disk load. I have a fully upgraded jaunty x86-32, pulseaudio-0.9.13-2ubuntu6. This is the console: $ pulseaudio I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. I: caps.c: Dropping root priviliges. I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. N: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time and/or high-priority scheduling was requested in the configuration. However, we lack the necessary privileges: N: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt', PolicyKit refuse to grant us the requested privileges and we have no increase RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits. N: main.c: For enabling real-time/high-priority scheduling please acquire the appropriate PolicyKit privileges, or become a member of 'pulse-rt', or increase the RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits for this user.
