Slightly sloooow audio
Hi all
Bit of a funny one. Over the past few weeks, I've noticed audio plays ever so slightly slow. It's almost imperceptible; we're not talking a cassette Walkman with the batteries running out! It's just very very slight and barely noticable unless you know the song very well. I mainly noticed it from playing the same songs on CD or my iPod in the car.
This slowness is apparent when playing audio/video files (mp3, avi, mp4, etc), YouTube videos and BBC Iplayer too.
Does a soundcard have, for want of a better word, a "clock" which has maybe lost a milli-second or two?
I'm just using the integrated sound output from the motherboard. My graphics cards has a HDMI output but I don't use it.
If it helps, this is the output from
Code:
lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio"
