Comment (by coling):

 You didn't say which version of PA, but I'm assuming a recent (e.g. post
 0.9.11) version.

 This is a known issue on Creative hardware. See BrokenSoundDrivers.

 As noted on that page passing tsched=0 in the default.pa when you load
 module-hal-detect should work around it for you.

 Lennart, I know it is generally not a good idea to work around bugs in PA,
 but should we consider patching hal-detect to pass tsched=0 for the cards
 we know are problematic (unless a specific value of tsched is passed into
 the module - e.g. only in the default case)?

 I can knock something up if you like? I think it would help stop several
 complaints even if it does mask the problem.
