Sound through headphones is crackling/popping

  • 772

The sound through my speakers is fine, however it cracks/popples when played through my headphones. While looking for a solution, I found this. I tested this by unplugging my headphones, plugging them in again, and then quickly playing sound through them. The sound sounds file for ten seconds, then it starts crackling and popping again. However, there is no

options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N

in my alsa-base.conf file. Is there an alternate parameter that I can change?

  1. You could try this:

    Try resetting your pulse configuration.

    Using a Terminal="Applications->Accessories->Terminal"

    rm -r ~/.pulse ~/.asound* ~/.pulse-cookie 
sudo rm /etc/asound.conf

    Reboot and ignore any 'No such file or directory' errors
