[Bug 476652] Re: sound stops and begins clicking and popping

[Arroccali]

I can confirm to have the same exact problem as described by feroxy.
Using lucid 64bits fully updated here on a hp laptop.

It just takes a few seconds on a youtube video to trigger the problem.
With a media player it usually last longer but it crash anyway. 

i though my sound card might be dieing but on Vista on the same machine
there's no problem.

This is what i find in my logs:
