Bug Description
I performed normal updates using apt-get on 23 Sept. Below is a snipet from the log:
Preparing to unpack .../liboxideqt-
Unpacking liboxideqt-
Preparing to unpack .../liboxideqtq
Unpacking liboxideqtquick
Preparing to unpack .../liboxideqtc
Unpacking liboxideqtcore0

after this, all sound was distorted - it sounded very show and as if the voices were underwater.
I reverted to the previous package using synaptic
