Sound problem,

[Billie Erin Walsh]

Kubuntu 9.04-64/KDE4.2.2

I can play movies and videos on the computer and the sound works just 
fine. But, when watching something like youtube the sound won't work 
properly. The sound is choppy and stuttery is the best I can describe it.

Is there someplace like "My Computer" that lists all the hardware etc. 
on the computer? I'm not sure what sound is on the mother board. I 
suspect something from ATI but.......  I also suspect that there is a 
CLI command something along the lines of "ls" something that might show 
the sound card. Whatever works.I mostly need to find out if the proper 
drivers are installed. I _think_ they are because in cases of local 
video the sound is fine.

I don't believe it's an internet connection problem. My ISP is more like 
a fire hose than a garden hose. 1.5meg bandwidth. I routinely, if the 
server I'm downloading from can take it, get 230/250 kb/s download 
speeds. Once in a while even better.
