VIA 82C686 Audio Codec: Clicks

[Harald Dunkel]

Hi folks,

Has anybody an idea how to get rid of the annoying clicks of the
VIA 82C686 audio codec? Using xmms (just as an example) I get a 
click with each new track, when I move and release the track slider, 
etc.

Even this

	echo -n "" >/dev/dsp

produces a click.


Regards

Harri

You could try the ALSA driver if you're certain it is not a hw problem.It
works better here than the one in the kernel.

Now, _this_ is an improvement! I tried the 0.9.0beta3 version of Alsa.
No more clicks! Amazing. 


Many thanx for your help
