** Description changed: (Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer) When I browse through the net, watch videos on youtube (chrome + flash plugin) there is no problem at all. But when I open a video file in VLC Media Player (2.0.1), I hear the sound repeating several times. After running ubuntu-bug diagnostics the bug goes away soon until the next reboot (as you may have noticed, soon, not right after it) but I used to play with settings, and if I'm not mistaken, setting output settings to 'Analog Mono Output' used to make the sound play ok, but in mono. Sometimes after changing settings in different ways and returning them back the bug came away. I have no guess what helps. Please fix it, this got really annoying. + P.S. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/877509 this one seems to be alike ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: alsa-base 1.0.24+dfsg-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-16.29-generic 3.0.20 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-16-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
