I haven't had reason to do much with sound so far this year, but yesterday someone sent me a reference to a BBC News article... This was a flash video embedded in a web page. The sound was 'choppy'. I checked out some other sites, Ted, Wired, Brightalk, and the results were the same. I googled and found some Mozilla pages that mentioned this and recommended regressing to Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202. Well that what I was/am running. More googling, looked at re-starting pulseaudio, looked at changing the phonon back-end. All I've succeeded in doing is loosing sound altogether! I can't play recorded music (CDs or MP3s), make recording from my microphone, use Skype, listen to Ted or podcasts. Not that I could when the sound was choppy, but at least I had sound. I looked at how sound was supposed to start under systemd and that just got me more confused. Now I'm hopelessly lost and don't know what to try next. -- The truth of a proposition has nothing to do with its credibility. And vice versa.
