Comment 40 for bug 371897

Sorry, I spoke too soon. It started going choppy for a few seconds at a time, and now it's choppy all the time, just like it used to be. I guess it's not totally deterministic; it must be sensitive to something environmental on my system, but I'm not sure what. All other sound-producing programs are working fine.

Back to Neil's PPA... configured to use the pulse backend...

and it's working again. I guess I'll have to pin it for now.
