volkris (volkris) wrote : a2dp skips terribly in Karmic

As I upgraded to the Karmic alpha, bluetooth audio (via a2dp) stopped working properly. It was working fine in Jaunty.

My headphones are detected and configured by pulse, but the audio skips as if it's spending half of each second paused. Music is buffered so that after I click stop on rhythmbox (or whatever--it happens with whatever player I use) the audio continues until it's caught up.

syslog is full of the following lines:

This is with
bluez 4.45-0ubuntu4
pulseaudio 1:0.9.15-4ubuntu2 0

pulseaudio version 1:0.9.16~test2-0ubuntu1~ppa3 from ubuntu-audio-dev didn't help.
