|
|
|
|

|
|
|
1. Open pulse audio configuration file.
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
nano /etc/pulse/default.pa
|
|
|
|
```
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
2. find a line containing:
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
load-module module-udev-detect
|
|
|
|
```
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
3. modify this to become:
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0
|
|
|
|
```
|
2019-09-12 21:46:10 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2019-09-12 21:56:06 -05:00
|
|
|
4. then run this to kill existing pulseaudio
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
pulseaudio -k
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Why this works?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This disables something called "Glitch-free audio" which doesn't seem to play nice with my sound chip (ALC1220).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ironic given the name, since it's causing me glitches!
