Linux AudioEngine testers - Linux only
I'm running "xbmcbuntu-11.9-wsnipex-testing-v7.iso" from Xbmcfreak on an Acer Revo 3610 with audio over HDMI to a 5.1 channel amp. Sound is working fine for both music and videos.

However in the XBMC interface, with nothing playing, the audio device gets reopened every 10 seconds which causes the AV amp to resync. The following is repeated every 10 seconds in the log:

Code:

While this is happening CPU usage is around 25-30%.

Any ideas?
