[SOLVED] XBMCbuntu Eden audio issues on resume - PerJ - 2012-03-30 Hi, I've just done a clean install of XBmcbuntu Eden on my Shuttle XS35GT (v2). Almost everything seems to function as it should (kudos to the developers!), but I'm having a minor audio issue: After booting, audio is fully funtional. When navigating the XBMC menus and when watching videos, all sounds are processed correctly. But after resuming from suspend (S3), there are some audio glitches. The skin-specific sound-effects when navigating the menus are int the wrong pitch, and are all played with a heavy reverb/echo effect. When starting to watch a video, the first seconds are without any sounds. Then the video starts to stutter, while the audio starts normally. When the audio has caught up to the video, the rest of the video/audio is played normally (in sync). But when back in the skin menus, the reverb/echo effect is still there. This happens everytime I start a new video. After a reboot everything is back to normal. I'm using HDMI-passthrough from the HTPC to my receiver, and have set up audio the same way as it was when running Dharma: I use the following .asoundrc: Code: pcm.dmixer { And in Settings -> System -> Audio output in xbmc, I set the value for Custom passthrough device to "hw:1,7" I have tried to add a hook for alsa in /etc/pm/sleep.d/, but the audio glitches still persists after a resume. Code: #!/bin/sh I have also tried the approach suggested in this thread, but didn't manage to get any audio at all. Any ideas? Relevant info: Code: per@xbmc:~$ aplay -L Code: per@xbmc:~$ lspci | grep Audio RE: XBMCbuntu Eden audio issues on resume - PerJ - 2012-05-10 So I thought I'd post an update to this thread. I did try some different approaches, incl probemasking ALSA (got audio configured, but the stutter persisted). Force-reloading ALSA after a wakeup did fix the audio, but also ended the current XBMC session, so it wasn't exactly optimal... As a final resort, I have now installed Ubuntu 12.04 with XMBC, and tried some different configurations. To make a long story short: By not doing any audio configuration in Ubuntu (short of unmuting the NVidia channels in alsamixer), and setting the Settings -> System -> Audio output value for Custom passthrough device to "plughw:1,7", I am finally getting proper audio in videos after a suspend/wakeup. I am, however, missing all skin-sounds. But the audio in videos and Music plays without a hitch. And after a week without skin-sounds, I have found that I much prefer it so. /Per |
