the crackling
- Login o registrati per inviare commenti
When using Belenos I always had frequent crackling when using headphones. I don't recall noticing it while I was briefly using Arch, but it's definitely there after switching to Flidas. Searching online, I can find a lot of threads about crackling when using pulseaudio, but not a lot of solutions. The crackling doesn't go away after$ killall pulseaudio I'm pretty sure it didn't happen in Arch (using pulseaudio), so maybe it's a Trisquel/Ubuntu issue, or perhaps Arch includes some non-free firmware that fixes the problem. I would rather endure the crackling than use non-free firmware, but it would be awesome if I could do neither. Have any Trisquel users encountered and/or fixed this problem? Maybe it's an issue with my hardware? I'm using a ThinkPad x60. Come to think of it, I was only ever using Arch on my x230, so it's possible that the hardware is the issue and not the distro. Ideas?

Have you tried purging pulseaudio completely?
Try and see: sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio && sudo apt-get autoremove --purge && sudo reboot
SuperTramp tried to purge me, Morty!

Hehe :)
In the past, on the old version of Debian to be precise, I had several issues with audio related to pulseaudio. Each time purging pulseaudio proved to be the solution..
Pulseaudio works great now, the current version gives me no trouble at all.
I also wonder if the headphone hardware isn't the issue.
I don't have such issues with mine.

So... I wrote that in evening-of-archer-and-scotch-mode, not problem-solving-mode. I realized today that I've always kept one set of headphones with my x60 and another with the x230 and only used Trisquel on my x60 and Arch my x230. I just tried the other headphones with Trisquel and the crackling is gone. It was the headphones, not the distro or pulseaudio. Oops.
Trisquel, I'm sorry for doubting you.
Pulseaudio, you know that you've lost the benefit of the doubt on things like this by now. If you weren't a dependency for indicator-sound...

hehe, good to know it is solved and all is working fine.
