Meh. Pulseaudio sucks. It's the first thing I remove when I do a fresh install.

I don't really like the idea of wine having a default I guess.
It seems that the main problems that people have with PA are that a) it was released earlier than it was ready (integrated properly) and so people still remember it in that broken state, even if it's fixed long ago, and b) that nobody cares to read the manual for it...

The problem is PulseAudio, IT SUCKS.
Fix ALSA, add features and improve it. There's features to be added available in JACK too.
Linux needs to improve the low latency audio issues in the kernel.
And well, it seems Codeweavers is doing nasty things in the Wine project...

They think that Linux is that thing they've been using a bit and try to argue even if they have no references.

I dont have any problems with pulseaudio. Never had. Only problems were caused by alsa itself.
I really miss alsa controls, with pulseaudio, kmix is so empty...
Stop blaming pulseaudio, i'm sure that it fixed problems faster than it would have taken with improving alsa.
But thats offtopic.
(PS. my english can be bad sometimes, sorry)

Use PulseAudio and you will get loads of stutter

Originally posted by GreatEmerald View PostOnce again, pulse-damon.conf. It has loads and loads of settings to micromanage how much CPU it uses. It's set to be high priority by default (so that audio isn't interrupted), and you can change that very easily.
