Linux Finally Has A Fix For Crackling Audio Input On Recent AMD Systems

[castlefox]

The crackling audio output has been driving me crazy. It goes away after a while.... but how long it is all crackly seems rather random. Nothing really seems to trigger it getting crackly / or better. I am using a B350 motherboard. and Ryzen 5 1600 CPU.

Who can sell chips that don't even work? AMD looks even worse not making sure it works and fixing it.

I tried it but it didn't solve the problem of crackling playback using wired headset.
I always crackles in wired headphones even if i don't playback any sound at all.

Oh that was your issue, well that sounds (haha) different. This was specifically that playback was fine but recording was horrible. File a new bug at bugzilla.kernel.org with as much output as you can, there's a script called alsa-info that you can run for a good summary. Perhaps add [email protected] as CC even.

If you know how to build the linux kernel, grab the patch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...bd8a78f5ecc7db and change the { PCI_DEVICE(0x1022, 0x1457), stuff in the bottom of the patch to your 15e3.

are there spdif or hdmi microphones? spdif for external sound card is ok

Technically yes, though maybe not worth the cost and hardware to do so. So in that regard, I would agree that USB is probably the best way to get good input audio quality for a reasonable price.

I wouldn't consider that "proper". It's not necessarily worse, but SPDIF and HDMI are more what I'd call proper, due to lower latency and less CPU overhead.

Finally, some sort of solution. A shame a proper fix hasn't been found, but at this point I'll take it. Is this going to be backported to stable kernels though?

I got no problem patching a kernel but i use 4.19, is there a patch for lts 4.19 or does this patch apply to 4.19 as well?
It seems to apply to 4.19.66 as well.

I got crackling audio playback on my ryzen 2500u laptop [1022:15e3] when i use a wired headset, it really bugs me a lot.
I tried many "solutions" i found while searching for a solution but nothing solved it for me.

Asus A88X-Pro + Kaveri 7850K, sound Realtek 1150. In the list of problematic ones is ALC883.
I do not have a package for this command.

You can do "lspci -nn" . I would guess that would already be covered by older workarounds...
