Delta Audiophile 2496 = (low pitch && low speed) || crackling

Hi everybody,

I have a the sound card Delta Audiophile 2496 but unfortunately I can't really use it. sad

I only can play mp3's with audacious2 without crackling but the pitch and the speed is too low. Changing Bit Depth and Sampling Rate doesn't really help because either it makes no difference or audacious can't open any mp3's any more.
I can't get Amarok playing sound. (maybe it's not because of the sound card but I think so wink )
It's crackling with VLC. (I'd like to watch videos without crackling when I spent so much money on a good sound card and good headphones...:rolleyes:)

Can somebody help me or has somebody better Google skills than me?
(I hope I chose the right area for my thread and it's not too nooby for 'Kernel & Hardware Issues'... wink )

Thanks in advance for your help. smile

Some additional comments:

Sound as on youtube works fine.
The lack of speed and pitch is not high but disturbing.

Sounds like you might have a wrong clock frequency set?

Re: Delta Audiophile 2496 = (low pitch && low speed) || crackling

Oh thank you very much! I spend so many time to fix it with google... wink

Is there a possibility to have the volume manager applet change the "master" volume?
