[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 403363] Re: OpenAL-based applications' sound is jerky

[MDxm]

Suddently Ubuntu Karmic with current libopenal1 is freezing Blender while playing a game through it.
libopenal1 1:1.8.466-2
I had it working with drivers=pulse,oss before when the install was fresh but tried jauntys Blender2.49b package in Karmic and now it only works while using the other 2.49b versions not specific for Ubuntu. I don't remember updating libopenal during the process.
Downgrade of Blender did not work either. Weird I must say. Warzone2100 behaves the same way until I change the alsoft.conf back to original settings, but then the sound is not sounding correctly.

Status in “openal-soft” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: libopenal1

In applications based on OpenAL, like FlightGear or OpenArena, sound is jerky.
Adding the following line in /etc/openal/alsoft.conf seems to fix the problem :

drivers = pulse

Found here : http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#OpenALApplications

Works in Karmic, not tested in Jaunty (but Jaunty's jerky sound in OpenAL seems to be worse)

my libopenal1 version : 1:1.8.466-2
