Fedora with noisy audio

If at any given moment the audio is very noisy, which happens most often when using Kontact or Kmail, edit the following file

[root@amd64 ~]$ nano /etc/pulse/default.pa

and look for the following section:

### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available
.ifexists module-udev-detect.so
load-module module-udev-detect
.else
### Use the static hardware detection module (for systems that lack udev support)
load-module module-detect
.endif

Fedora has support for udev, so edit the first line of load module to

load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0

Then restart pulseaudio or restart the computer.

[pratajo@amd64 ~]$ pulseaudio --kill

[pratajo@amd64 ~]$ pulseaudio --start
