mpd - sound is skipping (like a scratched CD)

Hello,

A few days ago I noticed a problem with my MPD. The music sometimes skips a second or two (like a scratched CD).
It is completely random and I can't relate it to anything else (like high CPU usage).

The MPD-related packages here:

renan@epica ~ (hg)-[default] % pacman -Q | grep mpd
libmpd 0.20.0-1
libmpdclient 2.2-1
mpd 0.15.10-1

My mpd.conf is:

bind_to_address                "any"
music_directory "/home/renan/Músicas"
playlist_directory "~/.mpd/playlists"
db_file "~/.mpd/mpd.db"
log_file "~/.mpd/mpd.log"
error_file "~/.mpd/mpd.error"
pid_file "~/.mpd/mpd.pid"
state_file "~/.mpd/mpdstate"
user "renan"
audio_output {
   type         "alsa"
   name         "My ALSA Device"
}
mixer_type         "software"
buffer_before_play      "10%"
max_playlist_length      "20000"

latest upgrade on mpd was:

[2010-06-02 14:08] upgraded mpd (0.15.9-6 -> 0.15.10-1)

Any ideas? My sound card is HDA Intel (chipset Realtek ALC268).

Thanks!

What does

cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs

print?

It gives:

renan@epica ~ % cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs
HL-DT-ST    DVDRAM GSA-T20N     WP03
ATA         WDC WD2500BEVS-2    01.0

But apparently the problem solved itself.
