Show-stopper Audio Freeze Bug Still Present on 1.5.1 & Snow Leopard #44

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
This problem has happened for me with every version of Leopard, Snow Leopard, 
and SF that I've 
tested. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07Mxziq8pDg

>What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set Soundflower 2-channel as the system output audio device.
2. Set the output of the Soundflower 2-channel device to be my Apogee Ensemble.
3. Play some music in iTunes and wait.

>What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to hear continuous music. Intead, after a few minutes, the audio 
stream degrades and 
stalls.

>What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

1.5.1 on Snow Leopard 10.6., 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 8 GB 800 MHz 
DDR2 FB-DIMM

>Please provide any additional information below.

Buffer size is 512 which should be entirely adequate on such a fast machine.

Note that this is a show-stopper since it happens on whatever audio I'm routing 
through 
Soundflower, whether my Ensemble is involved or not. For example, using it as a 
bus to send 
audio from Logic into ustream.tv, or whatever. Also, note that my Ensemble 
works perfectly for 
audio production using Logic, and for iTunes playback.

The video was set to "private" -- I have made it public. Apologies if anyone 
tried to watch and could not view it.

Since posting this, a lot more comments have gone into issue #24. Issue #24 
seems now 
to mostly be about the audio "freeze" problem, as opposed to some minor noise 
in the 
audio, so this one should probably be considered a duplicate.

Note that I am hearing on my blog that other folks are also experiencing the 
same 
problem (reported with Apogee Duet and Mac Pro).

I have Exactly the same Problem, using SoundFlower v1.5.2 on Snow Leopard.
I noticed that if I increase the buffer size it seems to work for a longer 
period but still Hangs after a while.

Any way to fix this yet?

Having the same issue, sound freezes. But it happens first for a split second, 
then a few seconds later it's a bit more and it will switch on and off a few 
times until it completely freezes. Any solutions yet?
