Could be, that the memlock value is a little bit high, maybe you could leave it. But these values are limits. At the moment, pulseaudio runs here on all my machines with nice -11 and realtime 5 (as defined in the original /etc/pulse/daemon.conf). Check it as user with cmd 'pulseaudio -vvv'. <br /><br />Important, pulseaudio should run as user deamon, not system deamon!!<br /><br />Btw. all my machines are using these values on 64bit OpenSuse 11.2 with KDE (4.9.2 or 4.8.x, ok my old Dell X200 with Pentium M and 640MB Ram is on 32bit LXDE, but this is for testing only :) ). No problem with standard OpenSuse kernel and with my default ZEN (BFS, BFQ and other tweaks) kernel.<br /><br />My player choice depends on the hardware, sometimes smplayer ist better, some times vlc, and sometimes even Kaffeine ;) Depends on graphics card. But there are no sound drop outs at all (besides on vlc over hdmi with onboard chipset radeon DKMS driver on one machine, but that's because I tried to pimp the cheapy speakers in my monitor with some pulseaudio equalizer settings :)<br /><br />Btw, all my HPET settings are on.<br /><br />Regards Mike<br />CY sysitos.<br /><br />PS: I think, if you have further questions, we could email this, or there are more OpenSuse users on Con's blog? ;)<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12391045215046883684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469704299235308349.post-45556222278728598592012-10-21T13:08:52.341+11:002012-10-21T13:08:52.341+11:00Thank you both very much for your replies!

Then "emulating" these settings by rescheduling with appropriate schedtool settings after startup I at least got better results in SMPlayer.<br />But it seems like the VLC pulse audio output plugin is still not working correctly.<br /><br /><br />Can you both -- or all other readers -- imagine kernel options that may cause audio dropouts? Perhaps wrong choices of timer/clock components like RTC, enhanced RTC, HPET etc. ?<br /><br />Thank you in advance again,<br /><br />manuSomethingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469704299235308349.post-31758288773454657172012-10-20T09:18:29.878+11:002012-10-20T09:18:29.878+11:00Thanks to Matthias Kohler, this patch may fix boot...Thanks to Matthias Kohler, this patch may fix boot problems if people are having them:<br /><a href="http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/3.0/3.6/3.6-ck1/Fix%20boot%20issue%20with%20BFS%20and%20linux-3.6.patch" rel="nofollow">Fix boot issue with BFS and linux-3.6.patch</a>ckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02904761195451530213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469704299235308349.post-35240524735520017572012-10-20T04:26:24.844+11:002012-10-20T04:26:24.844+11:00Experiencing the same problem.

Change your limits.conf<br /><br />/etc/security/limits.conf<br />@audio - rtprio 99<br />@audio - nice -20<br />@audio - memlock 4000000<br />@pulse-rt - rtprio 99<br />@pulse-rt - nice -20<br /><br />Maybe the @audio group is enough, could be that Opensuse doesn't use pulse-rt group anymore. And of course, you should be member of audio ;)<br /><br />Hope that helps.<br /><br />Regards Mike<br /><br />CU sysitisMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12391045215046883684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469704299235308349.post-63317448656300605202012-10-19T00:38:44.077+11:002012-10-19T00:38:44.077+11:00[Offtopic]Manuel change you distribution!
