[Bug 402018] [NEW] [i855] Choppy audio playback

[Julian Lam]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vlc

Upon upgrading to Karmic Alpha 2, VLC was also upgraded from 0.9.9 to
1.0.0-1ubuntu1.

I can no longer play videos on my laptop properly, because the audio
skips almost every second, interrupting the audio and making the viewing
experience almost unbearable.

I tried to kill pulseaudio, but in my limited experience, Ubuntu just
restarted pulseaudio almost immediately after killing it. "pulseaudio
--kill" did the same thing.

Didn't have this problem in Jaunty - does anyone have any ideas as to
what I might try? It seems like a regression, although I haven't
narrowed it down to which component is failing.

I've included my graphics card details, in case they may be necessary
for debugging (Intel 82852/855GM on a Dell Inspiron 700m)
