YouTube playback broken on 54.0.2824.0 for Linux only |
|||
Issue descriptionVersion: 54.0.2824.0 OS: Linux - Precise I'm consistently running into an issue where YouTube videos only play the first few seconds of playback. And then pause, this happens with Ads as well. Attached is a net-log from a sample YouTube video, this reproduces on every one I've tried. What steps will reproduce the problem? (1) Navigate to https://youtube.com (2) Open a video for viewing What is the expected output? The video should play normally. What do you see instead? After a few seconds the video stops playing, and gets stuck buffering (I tested my connection and get 860Mbps down / 660Mbps up so it's unlikely to be a bandwidth issue) Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

Sure here's a sample - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoaofsUoHBo There's also a netlog in the original bug. I only have the one linux machine, but I can give you details about it: OS - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Processor - Intel® Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v2 @ 3.50GHz × 12 Graphics - Quadro K600/PCIe/SSE2 RAM - 32 GB

Does this repro on other versions of Chrome on your machine? For buffering issues you should report feedback within the YouTube page so YT can get accurate logs.

no response from bug opener. I couldn't repro this issue on Linux + Chrome 54.2832.2. resolve it as won't fix.

FYI, this is usually due to a transient issue with PulseAudio. Try restarting your system.

Yeah, check your syslog for any error messages related to pulse audio. You can manually kill the pulseaudio process and restart it in a terminal to see its output spew too. We've since this from things like having a symlink in your pulse config directory. |
