Hi
Does anyone else get static on sound when trying to watch something on Youtube and running kmail/kontact at the same time? It happens with Chromium/vivaldi. It can be inconsistent as to it happening but it does happen more times than not.
regards
Ian

I would claim this is a problem of pulseaudio. I had: with vlc = intense and unpleasant whistling sound for 15 minutes, until shutting down all browsers and a vlc instance, leaving only a muted kaffeine, registering from satellite. Also unexpected unmuting, muting with no sound everywhere for apparently no reason. Restarting pulseaudio helped. sound alteration during reproduction of youtube videos from FF, Chromium. I find Opera to be very reliable on TW, you should give it a try when it comes to video. My experiences of Vivaldi are more negative than positive.

I do use Opera at times as well, just not for youtube. I have managed to clear the static at times by starting and stopping kmail a few times but that does not always work. There have been cases when the advert that sometimes precedes the video is fine but as soon as the video starts it goes wrong. I've just been trying it again and i cannot get it to go wrong. Its all so random.

It's probably caused by speech-dispatcher that's being started by kmail/kontact.
Try to kill that, and see if sound goes back to normal.
If that's the reason, you might uninstall it, at least if you don't want/need the text-to-speech features.
Kind Regards, Wolfgang
