I update a bunch of packages today resulting in wierd sound on a few websites, possibly involving flash. This page played perfectly in www-client/firefox-3.6.13 yesterday: http://soundcloud.com/zwr/sets/zoot-woman-things-are-what-they-used-to-be Updates possibly involved: - alsa-utils-1.0.24.1 - alsa-lib-1.0.24.2 - sys-libs/glibc-2.13 However, downgrading alsa to 1.0.23 (including alsa restart, even reboot) did not fix my problem. I have that problem on two different amd64 machines: A) 2.6.36-gentoo-r5 B) 2.6.37-gentoo Any ideas? If it's not alsa, what could it be?

Any chance it's that glibc memcpy thing ? (just a minor note: I'm not on glibc 2.13 yet - honestly, it sounds like fun (no, seriously it does) - but for whatever the reason that page doesn't play any sound for me, doesn't even seem to try)
(In reply to comment #2) > Any chance it's that glibc memcpy thing ? Not sure yet. Thanks for the hint.
Created attachment 262121 [details] Packages reinstalled after glibc downgrade After downgrading glibc to 2.12.2 and re-emerging the excact packages listed in above attachment, sound on http://soundcloud.com/zwr/sets/zoot-woman-things-are-what-they-used-to-be works fine again in Firefox 3.6.13.
If it's memcpy() it doesn't matter what you reinstalled afterwards. More than likely your problem is the reverse memcpy(), good luck to find where that happens though, if you don't want to valgrind everything.
(In reply to comment #5) > If it's memcpy() it doesn't matter what you reinstalled afterwards. Agreed, but as I don't know for sure, I better added the list.
