Comment 27 for bug 550100

hello all

I recently upgraded from 0.25 to 0.27 and was having issues with the frontend crashing - which appeared to be caused by a problem with the ALSA:surround51 configuration inherited from previous versions

unfortunately when I tried changing FE to Pulseaudio:default I started getting this strange white noise issue

I cannot tell you if it affected 0.25 but it definitely affected my upstream in 0.27

I can confirm the above workaround (fix?) where I changed "Override SRC audio quality Sample rate conversion" from "Fastest" to "Disabled" worked for me - thanks walter
