dear friends...
this a peculiar problem..

when i play any audio fie such as mp3 files...etc.
an initial glitch occurs (as if playing from a scratched CD)..
and after 5 seconds or something like that the sound is nomal
i have no idea abt any definite solution of this bizzare problem..

is there any way 2 get rid of this annoyance?
plzz help guys
thnx

1. What is your sound card?
2. What sound system are you using? (ALSA, OSS, pulse)
3. What driver are you using for your card?
I assume that sound is bad on all apps and not just totem, yes?
cheers,
jdk

i am using ALSA
and this problem persists on all software..
can u suggest any solution?
