[Pkg-audacious-maintainers] Bug#511528: audacious: Wake-ups CPU 200 times/second, keeps laptop fans spinning

[Alex Dănilă]

Package: audacious
Version: 1.5.1-4
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Audacious is the main cause for CPU wake-ups and as such the fans never 
stop when Audacious is running. This happens both when playing and when 
being paused.
Powertop output:
   23.5% (109.5)         audacious : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
   22.0% (102.5)       <interrupt> : extra timer interrupt
   20.7% ( 96.6)         audacious : futex_wait (hrtimer_wakeup)
   10.0% ( 46.8)       <interrupt> : HDA Intel
    4.9% ( 22.8)             opera : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
    4.6% ( 21.4)      <kernel IPI> : Rescheduling interrupts
    2.5% ( 11.5)          postgres : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
    2.1% ( 10.0)     <kernel core> : ehci_work (ehci_watchdog)

Most probably a bug to be forwarded upstream.
