Debian Hardware :: Constant Loud Crackling Noise From Yoga 2 Pro Speakers

Aug 27, 2015

This is a weird and persistent bug that I've been having. It's persisted across multiple distros (Arch and Debian) and is currently making my computer only usable without sound. I'm beginning to think it's the hardware.

Anyway, the hardware is a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro laptop. I'm currently running Debian 8. The crackling noise begins shortly after I log in - it happens regardless of whether the audio is muted, or whether anything is currently playing. It's a very, very loud noise - on the level of a vacuum cleaner or similar (maybe, these things are hard to estimate). It sounds sort of like a fast series of crackling pops. If I put the machine to sleep with the power button the crackling will go away for a little bit after I resume - I haven't timed it or anything but I imagine that it takes 30 seconds to start up again (after the computer has woken from sleep).

I can completely eliminate the problem by doing the following:

Code: Select allblacklist snd_hda_codec_hdmi
blacklist snd_hda_intel
blacklist soundcore
blacklist snd_hda_codec_realtek
blacklist snd_hda_codec_generic

[Code] ....

But obviously, this makes the sound on the laptop not work at all. I've been listening to music with my phone, which is an ok workaround, but I'm a programmer and I'd like to be able to watch talks on youtube and so on.

lspci:
Code: Select all00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT DRAM Controller (rev 0b)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0b)
00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT HD Audio Controller (rev 0b)
00:04.0 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation Device 0a03 (rev 0b)
00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series USB xHCI HC (rev 04)

[Code] ....

It started happening on Arch after a pretty standard install (i3wm with Xorg, browser, terminal emulator, etc) and I suspected that I had misconfigured something, so I installed Debian - I know other Debian users with this laptop who have not had this issue, and so I figured the default settings would treat me better. No such luck - it started happening again on the clean Debian install. One detail - both installs (the Arch install and the Debian one) use full disk encryption (lvm on LUKS) but I can't think of how that would affect it.

My only thought is that it's some weird power saving mode issue - the soundcard isn't used for a bit, so it cycles to a lower power state, and the bad thing happens.

Debian Multimedia :: Constant Crackling Sound After Upgraded To 8.1

Aug 31, 2015

I have upgraded (twice) to 8.1 and I get constant crackling sound - interestingly only from my left speaker. It starts already after the GRUB boot, and when logged in it just cracks all the time.

- in Wheezy there is no this kind of problem
- I have installed Jessie (crackling), fresh install back to Wheezy (no problem), fresh install again Jessie (problem), back to Wheezy (no problem), and now Jessie (again problem).
- the volume slide is jumping like crazy together with crackling. There is no chance to manually change it.

I have managed (by some unknown chance) to set profile to off, and now it disappeared. However, it comes back ON when rebooted.

Fedora :: PulseAudio On F13 - Large Crackling Noise In Skype

Apr 25, 2011

I have had problems with pulseaudio since F13 so the problem is not new just that I have been working since 12 AM till now 6:30 AM trying to fix it and I have failed the only thing left from what I see is a complete reinstall. When I start skype it works for 5 secs then the sound becomes corrupt and make a large crackling noise. I have reinstalled alsa and pulse atleast 10 times removed any trace of config files and still the same result. It first broke when I turned off tsched in hopes that my microphone will no longer broadcast a buzzing sound. This setting broke everything and even after I reverted it the symptoms remained the same. It's 3rd time I reinstall fedora because of pulseaudio. Until the problem can be fixed I have reverted back to ALSA.

Ubuntu :: Continuous Crackling Sound From Speakers/headset?

Apr 21, 2010

I've got some sort of problem with my sound configurations (I think). There's this crackling/disturbance (with an ocational beeping sound) coming from my headset whenever I insert a headset or speaker. Turning the sound off doesn't make it stop either.I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on a Acer Veriton 3600GT (some years old). Please note that I'm not all that familiar with Linux yet...Typing aplay -l in Terminal returned the following:

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Loud Crackle From Speakers On Start-up

Nov 4, 2010

I am experiencing a loud crackle sound coming from my speakers at startup. It appears to be the alsa driver because when I disable it the crackle/pop stops. Sound works when playing back music and videos however. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I reported the issue to launchpad, and was told the issue would be fixed in the latest kernel; 2.6.35.2. I upgraded to 10.10.

Ubuntu :: After Upgrade To 11.04, After Computer Is Booted Speakers Emit High Pitched Noise

Apr 28, 2011

I upgraded to 11.04 today, and ever since the upgrade my speakers (and headphones; any audio device) emit a high-pitched shriek when connected to the computer. This only happens after I enter my password on the login screen, and only in Ubuntu. There's no problem when I boot Windows.

The sound is very high pitched and my speakers play no other generated sounds while emitting this static. Obviously, I'd like to be able to have sound and listen to my music, so this needs to be fixed.

Debian Hardware :: Crackling Sound On Jessie

Sep 19, 2015

So whenever I start-up and after I enter my passphrase for cryptsetup (before login manager) I hear this crackling sound from my speakers constantly throughout usage.

While watching a movies or playing Youtube videos it's less noticeable, but when I'm typing up or working it really gets frustrating.

I've tried to figure out if pulseaudio was the culprit. uninstalled and rebooted yet crackling and pops continued. I haven't yet altered or messed around with ALSA or snd_hda_intel driver. But I did notice while using Audio Mixer, muting the speakers section stopped the crackling ...

So I guess the problem lies with Alsa or snd_hda_intel or both?

Debian :: Laptop Fan Running Loud After Kernel Upgrade?

Mar 16, 2010

I'm running Debian Squeeze and last night i upgraded to the latest kernel release. Rebooted and noticed that as the system temp rises the fan runs louder(as expected)t unlike before, it no longer gets quieter as the temp drops again. I didn't really think the OS managed that so bit confused why it is happening.I booted into Windows 7 and with the exact same temps the fan drops back down to a quieter state

Debian Hardware :: Wheezy Stable 7.5 - Crackling Microphone Sound

May 21, 2014

My microphone in skype is crackling on Debian Wheezy stable 7.5 ... It is OK on Windows so it is obviously not the hardware to blame.

I have tried already all the options I could find regarding this on the internet, by changing in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf:

Code: Select all resample-method = speex-float-10
OR
Code: Select all resample-method = speex-float-1

My output was also crackling but I solved it by changing:

in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf:
Code: Select all default-sample-rate = 48000
 flat-volumes = no
in /etc/pulse/default.pa:

Code: Select allload-module module-udev-detect tsched=0

I also tried starting skype with

Code: Select all PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype

Without any success. Now the output is perfect, but the microphone in skype (haven't tested it elsewhere) is crackling.

Debian Hardware :: ALSA - Noticed Some Sort Of Crackling In Audio

Mar 9, 2011

I am having a really annoying problem here. Every time when I use my Computer while listening to music, or watching a video, I get some sort of crackling in my Audio. For example, playing a mp3 with Rhythmbox (or Banshee or Totem, doesn't matter really) while browsing the web is just horrible, every time I scroll down the page (Mouse wheel or keyboard) I get that noise. Just listening to the music while not touching the Computer works just fine. It does not seem to be CPU related, my reason being: I can max out my CPU, rendering a 3D graphic and still have crystal clear sound, but browsing down some big file-folder at the same time will distort my audio.

The same goes with games which are a bit on the high CPU side, like Nexuiz with high graphic settings: No sound problems at all. I am using my on-board sound, which lspci lists as VIA Technologies, Inc. VT1708/A [Azalia HDAC] (VIA High Definition Audio Controller) (rev 10), pure ALSA setup, no pulse/esd or anything of the like installed. Switched to unstable to see if a more up2date kernel or updated alsa would do the trick, it didn't! I am running Debian Unstable - 2.6.37-2-amd64 kernel, Gnome-Desktop. Here's what I did to make my sound work in the first place, since my squeeze didn't recognize my sound-setup out of the box:

To make my onboard sound system-wide default I created /etc/asound.conf:
# Modified as per [URL]
pcm.!default {
type hw
card VT82xx }
ctl.!default {
type hw
card VT82xx } .....

Debian Multimedia :: Audio Crackling On High Volumes With ALSA On Intel ICH7

Aug 23, 2015

I'm having some issues with audio crackling/buzzing when turning up the volume, or on songs that have overclipped / overdriven parts, which doesn't happen on Windows (on it those sections are just "dampened"). Is there some certain settings in ALSA that are used to deal with this? Or is it something specific to the driver for the hardware? Speaking of which I'm using some integrated audio which goes by the name of Intel ICH7, and the chip itself is Analog Devices AD1981B.

I'm only using ALSA, without PulseAudio, and I've made sure the volumes both in the media players and under alsamixer aren't turned too high (PCM is at 47% and "Headphones" -- what is "Master" on Windows and on other soundcards under Linux -- is on 22%), so it isn't an issue with the software mixer being turned up too high. Also I'm using a pair of quality headphones (Sony MDRV55) so it's not an issue with the analog audio output either. I've also tried multiple other headphones and the result is the same.

Debian Configuration :: Squeeze Install - Nvidia Fan Constant?

Mar 5, 2011

I installed Debian Squeeze (choosing no when prompted to add support for non-free or contrib sources) and noticed that the fan of my Nvidia 9600 GT video card is constantly running at full speed. I thought this meant that the default driver is not properly working. I would like to configure my system so that the video card fan is not being pushed so hard.

I downloaded the latest Nvidia (propietary) driver, stopped gdm3, and ran the driver installer. The installer failed because it said the Nouveau kernel driver was currently in use and incompatible with the Nvidia driver. I chose not to allow the installer to update my modprobe configuration directory. nvidia-installer log file '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log'

[Code]...

It looks at though the xorg.conf.new file has the nv driver in use, but the Nvidia installer says the Nouveau driver is being used. I ran a line in terminal (i forget the exact line) to test the xorg.conf.new file in the /root/ directory. The result was No Screens Found.

Next, I tried to remove the xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package using aptitude, but it displayed a message indicating that xserver-xorg-video-all depends on it. I decided not to remove the xserver-xorg-nouveau package. Any suggestions on how to proceed in order to configure X with a free driver (nv, vesa, or nouveau) so that the video card is handled properly?

Debian Multimedia :: K3b Makes Strange Cracking Noise

I have just installed squeeze 6.0.2 amd64 and noticed when I use k3b to burn/verify a disc, when it has finished burning the media it plays a sound, and rather sound is played which sounds very crackly/muffled.I do not remember this on ubuntu, and I cannot say for sure but I dont recall this happening on squeeze 6.0.1.

Sound plays perfectly in all other applications, no problems whatsoever.This is not a big deal, I just dont remember this happening. I know this isnt the most detailed posting but does anyone have any idea what this could be? I even tried to reinstall k3b through synaptics and the problem still persists.

Debian Multimedia :: Noise On Image Viewer After Rawtherapee Export

Jan 19, 2016

I have a doubt about the Gnome default Image Viewer.It's because I edit my RAW images on RawTherapee, and then export them to jpg.When I open the exported pictures on the image viewer, it looks like has lots of noise.But when I open the same picture on Gimp or Iceweasel, the noises doen't appear.

So, the question is: which image viewer is wrong? Is Gimp and Iceweasel "fixing" the picture automatically, or Gnome Image Viewer is reading it wrongly and showing it with noise?URL...

Debian Multimedia :: Flash Audio Has Weird Beeping Noise After Update?

May 15, 2011

Here's what I updated yesterday The following NEW packages will be installed:libboost-program-options1.46.1{a} python-chardet{a} python-debian{a}

[Code]...

Whenever I play a flash object that has sound, there is this repetitive beeping noise audible over the audio track. I've tried this on different videos and different sites, always with the same result. Whenever I play a multimedia file in Iceweasel, for example [URL]... plodes.ogv , the sound is normal, as is the sound for any multimedia file that I play in MPlayer. So, I am convinced it is a flash issue. What I don't get is why this just started happening for no apparent reason.

I recently installed Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty on my buddy's laptop. It's working alright, except when we try to plug the external computer speakers into the sound jack in the front, there is no change; it keeps playing through the onboard speakers. My friend and I are getting pretty frustrated because we use those speakers to watch movies with, and the onboard speakers aren't sufficient. If I need to provide any other info, let me know and I'll do so.
