Power management change in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf doesn't help. Changing pulseaudio to ffmpeg DOES help but still not quite listenable.
Uninstalled Pulseaudio totally and still got some stuttering so there's an ALSA problem *also* I think. Suspect this is an Intel HDA thing. BUT it really is only Spotify that crackles badly... system sounds, Amarok, YouTube, iPlayer all fine. -- Occasional sound drops in Wine via PulseAudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371897 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
