[Pkg-pulseaudio-devel] Bug#522598: more info: this appears only on PCI sound card as sink

[H. S.]

Hello,

Just some additional information. I have noticed that the problem I
have described occurs only when an application is sending the audio to
my PCI audio card. The card is:

$> lspci | grep audio
02:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880B [AudioPCI] (rev 02)

$> aplay -L
<SNIP>
front:CARD=AudioPCI,DEV=0
    Ensoniq AudioPCI, ES1371 DAC2/ADC
    Front speakers
rear:CARD=AudioPCI,DEV=0
    Ensoniq AudioPCI, ES1371 DAC1
    Rear speakers
surround40:CARD=AudioPCI,DEV=0
    Ensoniq AudioPCI, ES1371 DAC2/ADC
    4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers
iec958:CARD=AudioPCI,DEV=0
    Ensoniq AudioPCI, ES1371 DAC2/ADC
    IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output


$> aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

The problem does not occur if I send audio from an application to the
other device (USB headset, LX-3000).

Thanks.
