Oki,

can you edit this line: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...E.cpp#L607

and remove | PA_STREAM_ADJUST_LATENCY

please? Does that help?

[Manko10]

In the patched or unpatched version?

[fritsch]

Does not matter.

[Manko10]

Tried both, still no sound. The patched version is lagging a bit when starting a video but I guess that is to be expected.

[fritsch]

What was "the patched version"?

The one, that was working with my "insane" workaround?

[Manko10]

The one with the latest "combined" patch, i.e. the one with more verbose logging but no sound.

[fritsch]

That will always stutter, as it falls back to the NULL sink. The verbose logging + combine has no effect on this.

Btw. I can't solve this issue. It needs to be escalated and fixed in pulseaudio server.

If you can do me a real favor: Can you install Ubuntu 15.04? Onto a usb stick, add the kodi ppa, and install Version 14.2 and revisit the issue?

The two logfiles would be great again.

[Manko10]

I guess installing it into a VM isn't the same, right?
I can do that, but not today I'm afraid.

[fritsch]

VM would work (as a test) - but at the end would be nice to compare it on your very own hw.

[fritsch]

Btw. - as we now have "trial and error time". Could you add tsched=0 to the udev section in default.pa like described in kodi wiki and retry?

[Manko10]

I already tried tsched=0 before when debugging some other issue. Tried it again now, no difference.

[fritsch]

Oki -> please file a bug with arch linux then.

Important thing: the return value of pulseaudio server for minreq. That looks so insane that "I feel" some compiler / linking misbehaviour.

[fritsch]

Another idea:

Code:

PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 ./kodi.bin

What happens?

[fritsch]

And that you don't feel boring, please also install libcec2 - so that the CEC error in your log goes away, please.
