Re: [orca-list] Sound issues in Ubuntu Mate 19.04 and 19.10



Hello Christopher, Nick, and All,

Thanks Nick and Christopher for the quick responses.

I get the super crackly speech Nick and Christopher describe on Ubuntu Mate 19.04 but not under Ubuntu Mate 19.10. It does settle down after 20 to 30 seconds. This isn’t the issue I’m seeing. I’m getting persistent crackles in my audio (both speech and system audio) after speech dispatcher starts. They aren’t nearly as crackly as what nick and Christopher describe but still really annoying. Any ideas?

Warm regards,
Alex

I see exactly what Nick is describing below on my Ubuntu 16.04 system. I tried a configuration change someone suggested, but that caused worse problems, so I undid that change. Just as with Nick, since it clears up after half a minute or so, it doesn't really bother me.

Hi Alex,

Not exactly much help, but I've had the same issue for years under Fedora, and probably some older versions of Ubuntu as well.

For me, speech starts off crackly but settles down after about 20-30 seconds, so its not too much of an issue for me.

Does yours improve after a short time or does it remain crackly?

I think the last time I raised it, Luke said it was something to do with the way in which Speech Dispatcher and PulseAudio communicate.

Regards,

Nick

Hello All,

I’m currently experiencing some issues with sound under Ubuntu Mate 19.04 and Ubuntu Mate 19.10. In both cases, after starting Orca after reboot, sound coming from my system takes on a crackly quality. Playing an audio file after a reboot but before Orca is launched does not exhibit the crackly sound quality.

I’ve tried Googling the issue with no luck. Ubuntu Mate 19.04 is instilled on an aluminum unibody Macbook (2008). Ubuntu Mate 19.10 is running on a white Macbook (2007). Both machines are running the 64-bit versions of their respective operating system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Warm regards,
Alex
