After upgrading to Linux 5.8 I discovered an audio issue on my device that was introduced in 8ec7d6043263ecf250b9b7c0dd8ade899487538a [0]. I used 'git bisect' to identify the commit that introduced the bug and have confirmed that reverting the commit resolves the problem
Reproduction:
- Play any audio via PulseAudio.
- Observe that the audio output is fuzzy and choppy.
I can use programs like mpv to play audio without PulseAudio, and the audio is fine, but as soon as I open a process that uses PulseAudio it will ruin the audio output for all processes (including mpv) until I reboot.
I'm using a 2015 Chromebook Pixel ("Samus") and have confirmed this problem with a friend who has the same device.
Is there anything I can do to help debug this instead of sending a patch to revert the commit?
Hello Christian,
Thank you for report! Issue is a known one to us and has already been addressed by:
[PATCH v4 00/13] ASoC: Intel: Catpt - Lynx and Wildcat point https://www.spinics.net/lists/alsa-devel/msg113762.html
waiting for final dependency to be merged (Andy's resource-API changes, as Mark already added the SPI ones) so v5 with review changes can be provided. Shouldn't be long before this gets merged. As consequence, /haswell/ ceases to exist.
Please also don't forget that the new BDW HW register programming flows need to be shared as common code with the SOF BDW driver.
Thanks
Liam
