Please provide a link to one such stream, making sure that it plays
correctly in another program (such as Xine).

Well, just about /any/ vorbis file I could get my hands on. And yes,
ogg123 plays them fine.

As far as sample streams go, this one exhibits the anomaly too, although
not in a white-noisey manner, but noisey nevertheless:

  oggenc -r /dev/zero -o silence.ogg

Does the frequency graph show noise or silence?  Also please attach your
configuration file (~/.config/audacious/config).

The freq graph seems to reflect the actual sound -- i.e. perpetually
flat in silence.ogg and following the rhythm on songs.

The config is attached below.

My guess is that your sound card doesn't support floating point output;
the ALSA output in 2.1 doesn't handle errors well and in that case would
continue blithely on to use 16-bit integer output, generating static.
You should be able to work around the problem by unchecking "Bypass all
of signal processing if possible" in the preferences window.  That will
make Audacious convert the floating point audio to 16-bit integer
output.

You were spot-on, unchecking it does the job!

Thanks a lot!

tags 550550 fixed-upstream
thanks

Upstream 2.2-alpha2 check that the sound card can actually handle
whatever format it wants to use (since
http://hg.atheme.org/audacious-plugins/rev/4d05a55f48d0).

thanks

This bug does not have "a major effect on the usability of" Audacious,
since it only occurs with a particular option that is not enabled by
default, so it is not severity important.
