This morning when I turned on my computer it started playing
stuff on Pandora, but more slowly and at a lower pitch than
normal. I wondered if this was just a problem with Pandora, so I
checked my own song files with Amarok. Again, that music plays
more slowly and at a lower pitch than I'd expect. 1-2 days ago
this very same computer played at the right pitch and speed.
What could have gone wrong? The built-in (only) sound card's
clock is now running more slowly? Some system wide configuration
changed for the sound system, and it now slows things down?
If it's a configuration thing, then I didn't intend to do that,
nor did I even touch the configuration. This computer runs
PulseAudio on Mandriva 2009.1. The driver is snd_intel8x0.
Any ideas folks?
I had the same problem sometimes on my last computer. It had Gentoo on
it and onboard soundcard. Sometimes it just did that (usually in the
middle of some high demanding task, like compilation). Solution was
sometimes to just restart alsa, but that didn't work more times that it
did. Restarting whole system usually helped.
Unfortunately, I never found out what caused the problem so this is not
very helpful (I am not using that machine any more, but now it runs just
fine with Linux Mint on it).
Cheers!
