Re: [alsa-devel] Realtek ACL892: audio gap ~ each 10 seconds?

I changed my motherboard to Asus P8Z68V-Pro/gen3 and it uses the Realtek ACL892.

Everything works, except for the fact that the sound has a "gap" each 10 seconds... it's annoying... it's just like a small pop or click...

What can I do to debug that? Is there a workaround I can try?

Thanks.

Long shot: this may be caused by your video driver (possible duplicate: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29536 ). Please try adding the following parameter to your kernel command line:

drm_kms_helper.poll=0

If drm_kms_helper is built as a module, do this instead:

echo options drm_kms_helper poll=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/kms.conf

You need to reboot for the setting to take any effect.
