SuperTux Intel HDA Audio Glitch

Bug Description

Binary package hint: supertux

On both computers I have (one laptop, one desktop) running Ubuntu Edgy and Feisty, SuperTux during the whole game suffers from constant clicking sounds. Like the sound buffer is emptied and new one is not queued up fast enough or something. Both of these machines are fairly fast and are running at excellent frame rates. Both machines use the embedded Intel HDA sound card (judging by Ubuntu's drivers). This doesn't effect programs like XMMS/VLC/mplayer/Totem.

Unable to reproduce in feisty.

I only confirmed it, as it does the exact same thing, in Feisty on two different machines running embedded Intel HDA cards. There is nothing special about the install or anything.

BTW, I figured out that if you create ~/.openalrc file with the following one line that it works without the apparent buffering glitch. So I suppose its an OpenAL problem:

(define devices '(oss))
