use of interrupt-based scheduling may resolve sound problems for
some users. Under recent versions of Ubuntu Linux (9.04 and higher)
this can be accomplished by changing the following line in the
/etc/pulsa/default.pa file:
load-module module-udev-detect
to
load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0
Note that PulseAudio must be restarted for changes to take effect.
Older versions of PulseAudio may use the module-hal-detect module
instead. Adding tsched=0 to the end of that line will have a similar
effect.
Another possible solution is selecting the "pulse" backend of SDL
by either using "SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse openttd" at the command
prompt or installing the 'libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio' package from
Ubuntu's Universe repository. For other distributions a similar
package needs to be installed.
