[Pkg-audacious-maintainers] Bug#613203: audacious: High CPU usage with snd_hda_intel based soundcard

[John Lindgren]

Hi Fabien,

This is indeed a problem that has plagued Audacious on and off for
years.  It is apparently a bug in ALSA's DMix resampler, though still no
one knows exactly what triggers it.  Audacious 2.4.3 has a workaround
(http://hg.atheme.org/release/audacious-plugins-2.4.x/release/audacious-plugins-2.4.x/rev/974307743be7)
that should eliminate the high CPU usage.
