Description Rene Dudfield 2009-10-12 14:25:54 UTC 
"We're having another subtle issue, this time with SDL_Mixer. We have a 24-second, 44.1 KHz stereo ogg loop which we play as music with Mix_PlayMusic(pChunk, 0) to make it loop indefinitely.

At least on Windows, when the music loops, we start hearing a quick clicking noise on top of the music, which never goes away. Since the first pass sounds perfect and the ogg sounds perfect in, say, mplayer, I guess it's a SDL_Mixer issue."

A work around is to play the music, wait until it finishes, and then play it again.

Can not reproduce on ubuntu with ./build/playmus -i -l bla.ogg
