Description

What's the problem?

The sound in-game is choppy, even though the frame rate is constantly at 60 fps.

Dolphin version with the problem (as it appears in the title bar, Ex.: "R
4779" or "R 6403M"):

Dolphin_r6495_x86

Operating system and version:
32-bit or 64-bit: Windows 7 32-bit

Game ID (as it appears in game properties, Ex.: "GZ2P01" or "RSBE01"):

SMOP41 (Michael Jackson The Experience)

Please provide any additional information below.

The sound in-game is choppy, even though the framerate is constantly at 60 fps. All audio options are enabled. This is strange because other similar dance games (Just Dance 2 for instance) all work fine.

Have you tried to change Audio backend or sample rate?

I use R6495 x64 with Direct3D and HLE and I get perfect sound.

Can somebody else confirm this?

I tried all audio backends (XAudio, DSound and OpenAL), but no difference. I tried both sample rates (48,000 and 32,000). I also tried OGL, DX9 and DX11 modes. Is there any particular setting which needs to be enabled or disabled? I don't understand because I have no problems in other similar dance games.

Try to put "frame limit" to off and "Enable audio throttle" to on...

actually choppy sound is for a lot of games... fps will say it's 60 or 30 but sound will chop ar sound like it's been dragged :p
in games like rockband is totally unbereable

This must be the same problem that I found in Nba 2k3 (component DSP) which I described in issue 3358 (NBA 2k3 sound looping problem)...in fact you continue to hear over the music the looping of the last sound effect played for starting the game...

Just wanted to pop in and say I had the same issue with my I52500k (oc'ed to 4.2). It seems mine was not an issue with my CPU being too slow, but that the audio was rendering too fast (or something along those lines).

Anyways I solved it by going into Options>Configure>Framelimit: Audio. My frames before were consistently 60fps, but now they jump anywhere between 70 and 100 with the audio not skipping at all.

Thanks
