[Bug 302444] [NEW] Audacity speeds up music playing in the background

[john_haynes]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: audacity

Hey,

I usually always have music playing in the background whilst working.
When I open up Audacity the music in the background speeds up and does
not slow back down even after shutting Audacity down, however it does
return to normal if i let it play out and it moves onto the next song
automatically, if I force it to the next song it continues. Only way to
fix it seems to be a complete reboot. I use the ALSA sound system, and
didn't have this problem under any of the previous versions of ubuntu,
and no hardware has changed.

Does it regardless whether i'm using VLC or Movie Player. I'm totally
stuck and use Audacity a fair bit.

I thought about not having music playing in the background, but kind of
defeats the purpose.

Any help appreciated.

John.

I'm using 8.04.1 Standard Kernel
