Here's an interesting thing!!!! I was reading over "First Steps" on the pulseaudio website, and I noticed the pulseaudio command "play-file".
I fooled around a bit trying to kill pulseaudio and start it up from the command line with pulseaudio -nC but it seems some system service is restarting it automagically. Aaaaaaaaanyway, then I noticed the use of "pacmd" to connect to the daemon, so I tried that, and sure enough, connected to the daemon. Then I copied a couple of .flac files from my Music directory to my home directory as "test.flac" and "test2.flac", and I used "play-file" to play them. And I could not get any stuttering!!! Thinking maybe it was something to do with restarting the daemon a few times, I started up Exaile and played a file; it stuttered within a minute or so of the beginning of the song. Am I onto something here? BTW I am back to a vanilla pulseaudio configuration.
