[arm-allstar] Distorted audio.

[Doug Crompton]

Tom,

 Any time that problem occured it was always cleared with a restart or
reboot. In oyu case I don't know and would need more info to analyse. Does
it sound like clipped distorted audio or is it off pitch and/or going fast
or slow in speed?

Like I said before there is no general problem with this and it might just
be something corrupted on the SD card. If it worked for a year and then
stopped that would be my feeling. If you go into the client and use it does
it show any errors or warnings there? If you turn down the TX audio (item
3) does the level go down? Is the TX audio level having any effect
.
