[Asterisk-Users] Sound deformation during conversation or IVRmessage

[Régis MARTIN]

I try what you said and it works very better now.

It's effectively an IDE disk in the computer.

I have to do some other test but after the -u1 change I had no more IRQ
errors in /proc/zaptel/1.
I do not hear the "scricth" anymore.

Thanks a lot for you advice.

Regards,

Régis

It can be the disk access when the ext3 log is flushed causing missed 
interrupts. 

Whad does 'cat /proc/zaptel/1' show? Does the missed interrupts counter 
increment when you hear the noise?

What kind of disks do you have?

If you are using ide disks then you can try setting the unmasq irq bit 
with "hdparm -u1 /dev/hda" or whatever device your drive is.
