[mythtv-users] Audio dropouts .29

[Jack McGee]

I blew out a working 16.04 and Mythtv .29 frontend.


Installed 18.04 and am having an issue playing back recordings.  Audio 
dropouts of a few seconds every minute or so.



the frontend log is at
https://pastebin.com/G69jK6EY


This happens using XFCE or Gnome3.

Here is some of the frontend log:
