Choppy USB audio - Linux host/win guest

Post by H0wdy »

Hello,

I have tried two different USB soundcards/headsets, and both have choppy USB audio on win guest, linux host.

fedora 21 host, win 8.1 guest.

The regular passthrough audio works fine(which, incidentally, is also a USB audio card, but I don't go to devices/usb audio to activate it).

I can plug a headset into the usb soundcard that is being used as passthrough, and it works fine(regular 1/8 inch plugs). The problem is when I go to devices/usb devices, and choose a usb headset/soundcard there, then I get the choppiness.

Any ideas?



I use pulseaudio.
