 On my creative Audigy 2 ZS, sound skips and crackles. The problem becomes
 worse when I am under heavy CPU usage, and it crackles as I move the
 mouse. It seems to affect X applications worse than daemons (mpd) or
 mplayer in the console. Mplayer in the GUI crashes.

 I have tested this on kernel's 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.x86_64 and 2.6.29.

 The following line is reported in /var/log/messages over and over:
 Jan 28 18:33:48 localhost pulseaudio[12891]: module-alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke
 us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to
 write! Most likely this is an ALSA driver bug. Please report this issue to
 the PulseAudio developers.
