[Bug 1739310] [NEW] Sound crackling in Ubuntu 16.04

[Marlon Pavanello]

Public bug reported:

Sometimes, when i’m watching videos in youtube or facebook, the sound is
distorced with a “static sound”. After searching the web for a solution,
i found this site (maybe it’s the same problem, with better explanations
in english): https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/issues/2350

Always when i start the service “speech-dispatcher” for the first time
while playing something with sound, the bug occurs. So, i think maybe
the problem is with this “speed-dispatcher” service. When i restart
pulseaudio everything becomes normal again… This problem happens in
ubuntu 17.10 too. It’s a annoying bug and i don’t know the best way to
report it.

My specs:
GPU: Nvidia GTX 950
Motherboard: Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 (Rev. 6.0)
CPU: AMD FX 8300

P.S: I'm using Xubuntu now but this bug occurs in all ubuntu 16.04
"family". Sorry for the bad english.
