[Bug 1103018] Re: line6usb - POD Studio UX2 Playback problem. Very robotic and slightly slower than usual

 

The v3.11-rc1 kernel is now available.  Can folks affected by this bug
test this latest kernel before I continue the bisect process?  It can be
downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-rc1-saucy/

Title:
  line6usb - POD Studio UX2 Playback problem. Very robotic and slightly
  slower than usual

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using the POD Studio UX2 and Ubuntu 13.04 with the later releases of
  the 3.8.0 linux kernel the audio sounds very robotic and is slightly
  slower than usual. If I remember correctly I was able to get the sound
  back to normal on a slightly earlier release of the 3.8.0 linux
  kernel, but i have reinstalled Ubuntu 13.04 since. The problem occurs
  with everything that is played, so it is not an issue with particular
  applications.  My speakers are connected in stereo through the 2
  analogue outs at the back of the device. I have never had this issue
  on previous releases of Ubuntu. Playing music with this issue makes
  the music difficult and overall pointless to listen to.

  I have even disabled my onboard sound to see if that may be the
  problem, but the issue still occurs. I believe it is a sound driver
  issue relating to the later kernel releases. I hope the issue can be
  resolved. Thank you.

  UPDATE: The issue also affects the Line6 Toneport GX according to a
  user that commented on my youtube video, also another user has
  commented on my video saying that they have the same issue with their
  UX2 device. This shows that the issue is more than my own. It also
  shows that it affects other Line6 devices. I really hope this issue
  can be resolved before the next major kernel release at the least.
  Thank you again.
