[Bug 1025578] Re: espeak sound output very slow if bluez-alsa installed

 

I just see that you have 32x OS. Ihave 32x too. Maybe thats the problem? Bluez-alsa depends on...ia32libs multyarch!
I think i don't need that libs, because i don't use 64x programs. I hope that will fix my problem. :)

  With bluetooth disabled...

  $ 

  "A" way (not ideal! ;-) to resolve the problem is to simply remove the
  bluez-alsa package:

  $ sudo apt-get remove blue-alsa

  
  Notes:

  - I have no bluetooth audio devices within range or enabled.
  - I have no ~/.asoundrc so unclear why I'm getting all the alsa cruft.

  Attached is the output of 'sudo hcidump -XYt'.
