Occasional noise in audio file playback

[sarukichi]

Looking through some very old threads and seeing reports of noise in audio on playback, were these issues ever resolved?
I'm getting occasional static-type crackle simply playing back audio files, sometimes stopping/starting or restarting VLC will fix it but it seems fairly random. I think it's more frequent playing .flac files but not 100%, that could just be that I play a lot of flacs!
I've checked all bitrates, levels, I/O mixer app settings etc and there is nothing set to over 100% or mis-matched sample rates etc., esp. as the problem is intermittent it would seem to suggest some kind of playback problem. Playback in other apps is fine.

I am having the same problem, running v2.06 on a mac.... flac files are sounding fuzzy / crackly.... not sure why

I think this is a (already fixed) regression in VLC 2.0.6. Could you check a 2.0.7 Nightly Build of VLC to verify?
