[Bug 1739310] Re: Sound crackling in Ubuntu 16.04

[Daniel Novotny]

I was haunted by this bug for several years, yet I was not able to
google the solution, because I am not a native English speaker and I did
not know the English world "crackling" (shame on me) and I was not able
to describe the sound degradation properly to Google.

Today I was inspecting the processes on my system and I was suspicious,
because of the speech dispatcher processes: I thought they were malware,
because I don't want nor need any speech synthesis on my system, so I
was wondering why they run under my account.

Solved this by uncommenting DisableAutoSpawn in /etc/speech-
dispatcher/speechd.conf
