== Clicking and Garbled Audio for Creative Sound Cards ==
If you own a sound card from Creative like X-Fi and you notice random clicks during audio playback, then add following to your configuration [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/788#issuecomment-21707426]:
<syntaxHighlight lang="nix">
  hardware.pulseaudio.configFile = pkgs.runCommand "default.pa" {} ''
    sed 's/module-udev-detect$/module-udev-detect tsched=0/' \
      ${pkgs.pulseaudio}/etc/pulse/default.pa > $out
  '';
</syntaxHighlight>
Then perform <code># nixos-rebuild switch</code>, followed by <code>$ pulseaudio -k</code>.
The difference should be directly noticeable. This is a known issue related to quality of Creative driver [https://guh.me/solving-creative-sound-blaster-x-fi-titanium-crackling-slash-distortion-on-linux].
