Sound *Cracking* when using with Discord (Watching someone share screen) & Random Crash #1058

Open tackleza opened 3 years ago

Hello,

First I would like to Thank you for making this masterpiece software ❤️. I really enjoy PulseEffects(EasyEffects) but I have a problem since my distro (Manjaro) change to Pipewire then EasyEffects started to have a problem. I'll tried my best to explain since my English is not my first language.

My Distro & My System

The problem

EasyEffects with Discord When you using Discord while listen to music Ex. Spotify the sound started to Cracking like someone is cleaning my ear wax. And even worse when you watching someone live stream (Share screen)

discord_arch_electron 0.0.15-1 (AUR)

Since I already blacklisted Discord (WEBRTC & Chromium) it's should bypass EasyEffects but the problem still remains, but when I toggle global bypass, no more Cracking sound

Is this problem on EasyEffects or Pipewire? not only my computer found this problem, even my friend have a same problem. IF you need more information please let me known. I use Linux for a long time but I have zero knowledge of Pipewire

And during this Cracking sound appear EasyEffects sometime random crash, so I'll post some of Stack trace (dumped core) that might be helpful

Or any suggestion? i believe many user facing same problem like this.

Thank you in advance ❤️ and sorry for my English 🥺

vchernin commented 3 years ago

No worrries about your English! Just another user here.

I'd suggest trying to run discord by opening discord.com in Chromium or Firefox instead of using the app. It's possible a browser works better.

When you using Discord while listen to music Ex. Spotify the sound started to Cracking like someone is cleaning my ear wax. And even worse when you watching someone live stream (Share screen)

I am not an expert, but from my personal experience with PipeWire cracking can happen when the audio system "falls behind" and the system is under heavier cpu load. So it's maybe possible un ideal optimization is the culprit here, the system is not able to deliver everything on time basically.

Could you try running without any plugins enabled, and seeing if just running easyeffects and discord can cause the problem? Is there a clear correlation between running more apps on your system (eg screen sharing) and this cracking sound?

Hello, vchernin

Thank you for the suggestion!.

Yes. This way the Cracking sound is gone when using Discord via Website

I am not an expert, but from my personal experience with PipeWire cracking can happen when the audio system "falls behind" and the system is under heavier cpu load. So it's maybe possible un ideal optimization is the culprit here, the system is not able to deliver everything on time basically.

My CPU only running around 50% so that shouldn't be a problem

Could you try running without any plugins enabled, and seeing if just running easyeffects and discord can cause the problem? Is there a clear correlation between running more apps on your system (eg screen sharing) and this cracking sound?

Since I'm using 3 plugins (Autogain, Bass Enhancer, Crystalizer) When I'm disable 1 plugins (Crystalizer) while using Spotify(native) & Discord(native) there is no Cracking sound. but 3 plugins make cracking sound even on low CPU used

But I found interesting fact that I run stress CPU 100% there is no Cracking sound at all (running Discord without join any voice chat) enable all 3 plugins (Autogain, Bass Enhancer, Crystalizer)

More information I found out that game called "OSU!lazer" when "Graphics" Frame limiter change to 2x refresh rate+ make Cracking sound but if you choose vSync option. The sound is working perfect!

Summary:: The Cracking sound will appear when I'm enable plugin "Crystalizer". My CPU is running around <50%, Pipewire might can't keep up the output of sound? I really don't known 😞

If I have a free time. I'll try to re-install my entire OS, any suggestion is really helpful ❤️ If I found solution I'll let you guys know

Thank you 🙂

The output of G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=easyeffects easyeffects is too small. There should be many lines there. You probably had another instance running. Try to kill it easyeffects -q before getting logs.

Since I'm using 3 plugins (Autogain, Bass Enhancer, Crystalizer)

These are among our heaviest plugins. The maximizer plugin is another one that is quite heavy. But the current implemention I was able to do in the crystalizer is really tough on cpu with few cores.

But I found interesting fact that I run stress CPU 100% there is no Cracking sound at all (running Discord without join any voice chat) enable all 3 plugins (Autogain, Bass Enhancer, Crystalizer)

The stress test will force the cpu to keep its clock at the highest value. Maybe the dynamic frequency switching is not fast enough to provide to provide the processing power that these plugins need when they need.

But the current implemention I was able to do in the crystalizer is really tough on cpu with few cores.

That being said a i7-8700K should be more than enough. Maybe Intel's frequency scaling is related after all. In my desktop I have a Ryzen 3700x.

dumped core 1

These core dumps related to the zita-convolver library have a different source. I have seen them on my computer a few times and besides the fact they are super hard to reproduce on my computer the reason why they happen is still not clear to me.

wwmm commented 3 years ago

The Discord app is known for having problems with sampling rates higher than 48 kHz. Maybe it has other audio issues too.

vchernin commented 3 years ago

If it’s possible could you try discord canary? It’s the testing version of discord that currently ships with a much newer electron version (13 vs 9). Since a browser seems to help here maybe newer a discord app will help too.

Also for reference did you try discord in Firefox or chromium or both (or something else). It’s possible they behave differently.

Actually I see you mention using discord_arch_electron 0.0.15-1 (AUR). That is a special package which gets discord to use your system electron instead of the discord provided one. I suggest using the most official one, for stable and for canary. On arch that would be discord (main repos) and discord-canary (AUR). Those are also available as Flatpaks on Flathub (Canary is on Flathub-beta).

For some reason EasyEffects is likely to have Less Cracking Sound today. Normally I have Cracking Sound every second! But today I have Cracking Sound every 15 seonds which is surprise me! ❤️

Also Discord on website I only tested it on "Brave Browser (brave-bin) (aur)" I'll test on other browser soon

//Edited Brave browser & Firefox run discord on website is fine! work perfectly! 😍 no cracking sound at all

Thank you 😀

Hello,

Summary

No audio issue on browser (Brave, Firefox, Chromium) when using Discord on website, It's work perfectly no cracking sound at all ❤️

Discord Testing list

But today it's look like less cracking sound (Normally cracking sound every 0.5 seconds. But today cracking sound every 15 seconds which is acceptable 😍 but not perfect as using Web Browser)

When using Discord for first 45 mins, audio is fine no cracking sound, but after that, audio is started to crack, and even more when time gone by

Thank you

The Discord app is known for having problems with sampling rates higher than 48 kHz. Maybe it has other audio issues too.

No audio issue on browser (Brave, Firefox, Chromium) when using Discord on website, It's work perfectly no cracking sound at all heart

I wonder if this is an Electron-specific issue. Perhaps other Electron apps like Slack and Teams also experience this (Teams eventually migrating to Edge WebView2). Or maybe it's just specific to Discord's Electron app.

Hello,

I did a small test on Slack with voice call. No problem at all (No Cracking sound like Discord)

Tested on

Compare to Discord when I join Discord Voice Chat. Audio started to crack instantly

Thank you

Not sure if can help you, but I was also having problems with this Cracking sound (it was driving me nuts), what did the trick was to increase the number of buffers from PipeWire 

/usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf
...
    #link.max-buffers                      = 64
    link.max-buffers                       = 64                       # version < 3 clients can't handle more (Increased from 16 to 64)

It fixed most of the cracking issues for me, I still hear some of it once in a while, but it's a lot better now

tackleza commented 3 years ago

That fixed. Thank you

link.max-buffers                      = 128

Edit:: that not 100% fixed but far better than do nothing

wwmm commented 3 years ago

That is curious. I have seen in more than one occasion the main PipeWire developer saying that for audio no more that 1 or 2 buffers are used. And that high values are usually for webcam

Hello, I think I'm currently experiencing the same phenomenon. Here is some video evidence: https://imgur.com/a/T0YmTrj The effects I use is only the "Equalizer". I disable easyeffects for Discord, but I enable it for the Browser which is Brave. When I disable easyeffects for the Browser, the problem doesn't happen.

wereii commented 11 months ago

I am experiencing this too, whenever I have

  1. easyeffects active (does not matter if thru background service or open)
  2. with only rnnoise/noise cancelation input filter
  3. join a discord call - does not matter if I or others ale talking, even if I mute & deafen myself in discord, the output sound gets chopped and crackling randomly, input seems untouched

By just opening pavucontrol and keeping it open it reduces this a lot but does not solve it, closing pavucontrol brings it all back.
Disabling all output processing in easyeffects (no filters, untick all outputs, disable automatic output processing) I can completely remove this effect for other outputs except for discord sounds.

The crackling is very similar to the one in this comment https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects/issues/1021#issuecomment-878584536

easyeffects version: 7.1.3

I am only using the Micro Star USB Audio driver as output, others are disabled thru pavucontrol but the device output choice or mode (stereo, hifi, pro audio) does not seem to affect this in any way,

Eris7090 commented 9 months ago

I was going crazy but I just excluded it and now it doesn't crackle. I don't understand why it did in the first place because I had no output effects but alright
