		drivebyacct2 on June 15, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: FLAC.js, Aurora, and the Future of Web Audio Chrome and Ubuntu have been having both HTML5/Flash audio since early this year unfortunately. It's rare that I have any audio played correctly via Chrome regardless of the source, it sounds corrupt and plays at the wrong speed most of the time. Suspicions are PulseAudio. You can try killing it and reloading the page and trying again (you may also need to restart Chrome).

try adding tsched=0 to one of the lines in /etc/pulse/default.pa so it becomes

load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0

this fixed my chrome ubuntu audio problems. (source: links at bottom of http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=110375 )
