and pulseaudio-0.9.23-1.fc16.i686<br>
and kernel-3.6.2-1.fc16.i686<br>
<br>
While playing tracks from a disk directory, Amarok freezes<br>
and audio stops.<br>
<br>
So, I opened a terminal to see why the system was not
responding.<br>
Ran top.<br>
Saw that Pulseaudio was eating 90% of cpu.<br>
This never happens with any other media player such as vlc,
ffplay,<br>
mplayer, xmms, smplayer2, ... and many others.<br>
<br>
So, I killed amarok, and the system returned to normal.<br>
<br>
This happened twice in a row, so I gave up retrying.<br>
