[Voyage-linux] Glitches on Playback Start/Resume with Arcam rDAC and Voyage MPD 0.8

[John Mayer]

Hi,

I'm having curious issues running Voyage MPD 0.8 on a Compaq Mini 110c-1100dx netbook connected to an Arcam rDAC via USB.
Whenever I resume playback of a FLAC file from a stopped or paused state there are loud glitches at the very beginning
of playback lasting for at most a second. They seem to be most frequent with high resolution files and most prominent with files that have
little to no silence at the beginning. Additionally my kernel log always shows a message of the type "2:1:1: cannot get freq at ep 0x1" when I
start or resume playback of any file. I have also tried playing music from an attached USB harddrive and from the internal one, the glitches were
present both times.

Finally I want to mention that once a file is playing it plays without any glitches whatsoever. Also when I have multiple files, of different bit/sample rate even,
in a playlist and I switch from one playing file to another there are no glitches. The glitches only seem to appear when the sound card is moved form an idle state
into a playing one.

Does anyone have any ideas what the reason for this might be, or at least a possible solution to getting rid of the glitches?
