Re: [Banshee-List] Occasionally Won't Make Sound

[Patrick van Staveren <trick vanstaveren us>]

I would suspect a gstreamer issue, or worse, a kernel/alsa/alsa-lib
issue that is soundcard specific.

If you can replicate this in another program, that'd be golden; if you
can get it using totem+gstreamer or by using gstreamer at the command
line, or by some other magical method, that'd be a great way of
diagnosing it.

It's also possible that you have some nasty tracks in your collection;
keep track of which files are making the strangeness and see if there's
any correlation :)

Never heard of anything like this with Banshee, 'cept when I have a
corrupt mp3 (pulled some off an old disk that made just about every
player in the world go nuts).

Cheers

Patrick
