Description Amr Ibrahim 2015-08-16 11:26:37 UTC

Downstream bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1484869

I have Crossfade on for 3 seconds. When I play some tracks, a very clear beeping sound appears over the original audio. It happens when the tracks are played from silence (nothing was playing before), or when tracks change (and of course crossfade).

This doesn't happen when Crossfade is off, or when I play the same tracks in Totem (Totem doesn't have Crossfade). It also doesn't happen when I play the same tracks in a media player which is not Gstreamer-based, like gnome-mplayer.

I attached 3 mp3 files which are affected. Playing or changing tracks between them triggers this bug.
