Comment (by databubble):

 10.10 has released, and I still frequent blasts of static when using Pulse
 and 0.24-fixes branch.  I have not experienced any similar bursts of
 static/white-noise from any other audio source (amarok, systems sounds,
 etc.).

 With 10.04 and earlier, and 0.23/0.22 I was running ALSA through pulse,
 with "EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE_AUDIO=1", if needed.  The static issues
 appeared after the (otherwise excellent) audio work in 0.24.

 I get the static whether I force re-sampling to 40KHz or not.

 I have seen similar "Player(0): Waited 100ms for video buffers..."
 messages, but had not previously associated them with the static.   I'll
 do some testing and monitor the logs and see if I can narrow it down.

 Seems reasonable to assume for the moment that it's a myth audio (or pulse
 configuration) issue, and not a 10.10 pulse issue.
