I commented out the line "options snd-hda-intel power_save=X" and I confirm that the cracking sounds disappear.
But if everyone whose got an intel audio chipset got this trouble, why this option is not removed by default ? i think this trouble is annoying for most of users and only few users may want the power_save state enable. It may be better if these users add this option if them want. -- [karmic] cracking sounds before sound playback https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417302 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
