[pulseaudio-discuss] Pulse Audio 4.0 gets killed by 300 Hz tone...never recovers

[Robert Krakora]

Hello,

I had 'resample-method' set to 'speex-float-1' when it was previously set
to the default which I believe is 'speex-float-3'.  I meant to set it to
'speex-float-10' to see if the "motor-boating"
 would go away...looks like I forgot the '0'.  The wave files over SIP via
Asterisk 11.4 now sound really smooth going from 44.1->8->44.1...maybe it
was the up-sampling that was killing me.  With a better re-sample algorithm
the motor-boating appears to have disappeared with only a sacrifice of 15%
CPU on the dual core Atom with which I am working.  If this was indeed the
problem, I am going to feel really stupid getting you guys involved.  :-(
Thanks for your prompt responses.

Best Regards,

Rob
