bad sound quality in xmms?
erik s fredricks
static creeps in while it's playing as well. It happens regardless of cpu
load. I'm running an Athlon and the sound card's configured just fine.
All the settings for mp123 are where they should be. I just can't figure
out what's causing this. Is it just a problem with this version?

You might give a clue what sound chip and modules you are using (kernel
version or Alsa?).
On my laptop using commercial or free OSS, or Alsa ymfpci (Yamaha) modules
sound would break up or repeat until I disabled PnP BIOS support in CMOS
setup. Something having to do with the shared irq.

Can you play mp3's thru some other player? If so it might be that you
somehow turned on some output plugin for xmms (take a close look at
the voice removal one).
