Despite no activity on this bug, the fault is still there. If Musescore is started first, the sound is distorted. If the Sound panel (under Systems Settings) is opened when Musescore is playing distorted sound and the test buttons activated, then the tests are also distorted.
If Musescore is shut down and the test buttons activated, the test sounds play undistorted. If Musescore is subsequently started, it then appears to play undistorted sound. I have gone to the trouble of reporting this bug in the hope that its solution might contribute to improvement of Ubuntu. If noone else is sufficiently concerned, then the bug report will probably expire again, even though the bug remains. Hopefully, it will not be there in 16.04 but if it is, one can only continue to file a report on it. ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1513273 Title: [XPS13 9333, Realtek ALC3661, Speaker, Internal] Sound is distorted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1513273/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
