Bug#356326: kphone: sound problem in 'sid'

[Benoit Panizzon]

Package: kphone
Version: 1:4.2-5
Severity: important


Hello

I don't know how to say exactly in english, but the sound transmittion is 'hacked', or 'fragmented' or 'shattered'.
It's more serious if you use OSS which also adds a huge delay like if kphone buffers everything and replays it at
half speed with gaps inserted every few ms but also with alsa it's almost impossible to understand what one says.

Happens with peer to peer connection and with a connection to Asterisk.

Installed x-lite on that computer a bit later, and this works fine, so it must be kphone and not the sound subsystem
on that hardware.

Problem does not appear with kphone from 'sarge'.
