openarena makes strange noise

[lanig]

Binary package hint: openarena

Openarena makes strange noise at the beginning of the game (like when you plug/unplug a line in a turned on stereo) and the screen flickers a lot during the presentation of the logo until the menu. At the beginning of the game, it is really slow, with stange noise and gets better after. Overall, performance seems to be far poorer than it was in hardy with the same computer.

Also have strange sound here. But during the whole game while having Rhythmbox playing music at the same time. I think it has to do with the sound subsystem when mixing different sound sources. Can you check if you can reproduce that (playing music while playing)?
