Hi
I get distorted sound on certain video sites like SpanishPod101.com (except youtube) and on play command in console when trying to listen to mp3 files.
what went wrong?
Thanks

Possibly the clipping level (usually maxed) for the source material..

Thanks for trying to help but I don't want to do a research if I may.

I followed what's written in http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=141&t=73108

Not so elegant solution, but now it works!
