Audio Stuttering Issue - SteveDog - 10-17-2022

I have been daily driving the PPP for just over a month and most of the issues I initially found have been resolved. However, the audio output when I play music seems to be a persistent issue. (I am running Manjaro-ARM with KDE Plasma Version 5.25.5) The EMMC was flashed with this, so its likely not a factory software issue.

The music is from an SD card and when played on other devices (including the PPP with certain restrictions -see below) works just fine.

Following this thread's advice, https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10810&highlight=audio+stutter+pinephone+pro  , I chose to change the config file in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf  to have
Code:
realtime-priority = 9
This made no difference (at least that I noticed)
Another thread,  https://github.com/manjaro-pinephone/phosh-dev/issues/18  ,suggested lowering the volume to 50%. This completely removed the stuttering issue, and I have been able to get away with practically no stuttering at 65%.

In short, I'm wondering if anyone has found a permanent solutions to this issue or if this could just be a power management issue from the hardware.
Thanks!
