Comment 54 for bug 207135

Let's see -- first thread post two years ago? Looks like this will be a problem for the new user that hangs around like death and taxes. Got here because not only does my sound stutter but the stutters crash the display of Audacious2 on 32-bit 9.10 (sound continues haltingly but Audacious2 is frozen). Called up Top and I got a peak saying pulseaudio was using 106% of CPU. I was impressed. Less stuttering with command-line mplayer but I just got one. Older AMD dual-core with 4 gig and a generic nvidia 9600.
