Whenever I use VLC to play audio or video, I get no sound and a lot of error messages in the message dialog (“main warning: audio drift is too big (467942), dropping buffer”). I have a feeling that this is due to pulseaudio, as I am experiencing a bit of lag time in other applications as well. For example, game sounds play a few milliseconds later, and when pausing flash audio, the audio still plays for a few milliseconds before stopping.
How do I fix this?
