I solved, the problem was speech-dispatcher. I disabled speech-dispatcher and now the problem is gone. A greeting. carlo's fix is working but the bug is still exist's a good year later. Ugh, so *this* is what was causing that horrible sound distortion? I found this bug after finally noticing that it only happened when starting KMail, and only when using the HDMI output, too. I always restarted pulseaudio as a workaround, but disabling autospawn for speechd looks like it did the trick. I would have preferred a way to turn it off in the KMail settings, though (at least I couldn't find anything related). I opened an issue with speechd, see https://github.com/brailcom/speechd/issues/446, since I assume kmail isn't directly at fault. For completeness sake, I'm seeing this on Gentoo with kmail et al. at 20.08.3 and speech-dispatcher 0.9.1 (I can't test my OpenSuse TW laptop because I don't have an HDMI adapter for it). I think the one thing that would be nice were an easy way to disable text-to-speech via GUI, maybe this bug can be repurposed for that? |
