Could you test with the following linux build: https://launchpad.net/~wsnipex/+archive/...nta-master despite the Alpha10 Quality, it has a patch, that we currently PR (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/3563), which did good things when @herrnst has tested it.
Thanks much
This patch is working well for me if I use the Ubuntu 3.11.0-generic kernel. I no longer get audio drops with DTS-HD MA. I have problems if I use the 3.12.0 kernel I compiled. I'm looking through the kernel option differences to see what cause a problem like this. My guess is CONFIG_PREEMPT instead of CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is preempting the audio driver. I'm recompiling the kernel with the changed preemption mode to see.
