1 First I think I should start out saying that I don't have too much of a clue
2 when it comes to Linux audio. Now that that's out of the way, I have a box
3 that works at the moment with ALSA + ESD + Gstreamer + Gnome that allows me
4 to do software mixing and all my sound works. The problem I am having is
5 that I have this constant crackle when I'm listening to anything. I know its
6 not EMF because the sound was clean when I had Windoze on the box. Its not
7 so loud that it makes listening to anything unpleasant but it is quite
8 annoying.
9 Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this? I saw on some of
10 the newsgroups that people say this is an ESD issue but nobody seems to have
11 a good solution. The card is some on board Intel High Def audio thing that
12 Albatron ships with their mobos (can get specifics if needed). Any help
13 would be appreciated.
