Hi all,

Since using the first version of YDL to come out, I have not once got
sound to work 100%.

Standard in the YDL Gnome install is to install esd (the enlightened
sound daemon), however esd does not work properly. It seems that about
half of the sound stream given to esd is dropped on the floor, making
the sound out of the speakers sound like a CD when you "fast forward"
it. Thus a 1 minute sample is over in about 30 seconds or so.

If you switch off esd, and configure XMMS to talk to the sound card
directly, everything works fine - but XMMS is the only sound based app I
have managed to get to work.

I have also tried GnomeMeeting, but can neither send nor receive any
sound (all I get is silence on the Linux side, and an odd faint
crackling noise on the netmeeting side).

Does anyone know what the pmac sound driver is supposed to be compatible
with (OSS? ALSA?)?

Is there any hope for this? Or is sound on the mac a dead loss?

Regards,
Graham
