Pulseaudio actually has a default sample-rate and an alternative sample-rate, and I don't really understand when it use one or the other. But really... wouldn't it just be much more smart and easy to make pulseaudio working in the native sample-rate of the stream having priority ? As I mentioned, the priority level of each app could be set by user (in pulseaudio config files, or in app if available). A default "values set" might be proposed as well. For those who wanted good sound, the only way was to remove Pulseaudio to work with alsa drivers directly. But pulseaudio has now become a standard, almost all apps need it for the sound. So removing it from the system risks to break many apps smooth running. This is a really bad new for audiophile users, who are now trapped. Unfortunately, I'm not developer, but I really think that this feature is easy to implement. It doesn't change much in Pulseaudio mode of operation, but it does change everything for sound quality and audiophile users. Hoping to hear from an interested developer, thank you all for your attention.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
