Binary package hint: pulseaudio
Flash audio stutters on video collaboration websites
How to reproduce:
Start Firefox 3.5.3
go to http://
enter any chatroom with a live video stream
In the "sound preference dialog" in the "applications" tab there are
some ALSA plug-in [firefox] entries, of which the last one flickers as the sound stutters.
If you switch the device profile, in the in the "hardware" section of the "sound preference" dialog, to some other setting and then switch back, the stuttering disappears for a few seconds.
Opera 9.64 for Linux has the same issue. However on Windows the firefox works fine.
I also tried to work arround this bug by starting firefox with OSS:
FIREFOX_DSP="aoss" firefox
or aoss firefox
but that approach seems to be outdated and did not work.
I have a 64bit installation. It would be nice if somebody could confirm this on 32bit.
Please tell me, whether you need any more information.

I am sorry i can not post a better example. I did not know that it was that hard to find a channel to reproduce this that has not 10 screaming teenagers playing hip hop music in it. :X
