PROBLEM: Recording Audio CD's

From: Ben Duncan
Date: Mon Aug 23 2004 - 12:11:48 EST


[1.] Recording Audio CDs with kernel 2.6.8.1

[2.] When recording Audio CD's with cdrecord the output produced
is of an alien sound. The best way to describe it would be
like the sound that a modem makes. The tracks are recorded
at the correct length, and cd play programs show the
correct artist/album.

This has been reproduced on 2 separate
machine types:
AMD XP with nForce2 chipset
Intel P4 with the 82845G/GL Brookdale-G/GE/PE chipset.

Both machines are nearly mechanically identical. Both have a single
ATA 100 IDE disk on ide0 Primary. Both have 2 CD's on ide1. The
ide1 primaries are a CD-ROm/16X DVD Player and the secondarys are
CD-RW 52x52x52.

I can boot into the Slackware stock 2.4.27 kernel and re-run the
cdrecord command and it will burn correctly.
I have applied the 2.6.8.1 patch for audio memory leak (see
item 8.0 for specifics).

[3.] CD/RW, kernel, ATAPI

[8.] Other notes, patches, fixes, workarounds:

Very Important:
I have applied the patch from this link:

http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/3659

This was to BOTH the AMD and the Intel Computers.
It did not make any difference. Creating audio still
produces the "modem" sounds instead of the correct
format. Neither machine experienced the "slow" down
as reported here, either before or after applying
the patch.
