[Bug 147205] Choppy sound during playback from nfs4 mounted files

[Pete Jewell]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

Ubuntu 7.10 beta, Amarok 1.4.7 (using KDE 3.5.7).
Playing of music files that are located on an nfs4 mounted filesystem has become choppy.  By this I mean that every 20 seconds or so the playback appears to pause for a split second - enough for it to be noticeable.

This only started after upgrading from feisty, which was fully up to
date, and didn't exhibit these problems.

The network topology I have here comprises of 3 systems (1 feisty
server, 1 winXP, 1 gutsy laptop) connected to a 10/100 hub, to which the
adsl router is also connected.

The nfs4 mount is via the following fstab line:

squidwad:/music         /media/squidwad-ogg     nfs4
proto=tcp,port=2049,rw,noauto,users,sync,rsize=16384,wsize=16384
0       0

The same server that holds the music files also hosts the mysql database
backend for Amarok, along with an occasionally used apache2 web server.

If there is any further information that would prove useful in
diagnosing this problem, please let me know.
