Hi,

Im trying to play mp3's on a new arch using madplay and alsa.

If I pipe the output of madplay into alsa it works fine eg:

madplay -R48000 -o wav:- file.mp3 | aplay -cc

but if I invoke it directly:

madplay - R48000 file.mp3

it sounds horrible, like its clipping and there lots of
white/pinknoise mixed in.

I have tried attenuating the output (-a -10) and check alasa-mixer
settings that doesn't help.

I also get the same effect when playing audio via mplayer (using
libmad) I have no FPU so cant try mpg123 for instance.

Any help or hints welcome.

Cheers

Neil
