Ubuntu 11.10 Sound Blaster X-Fi ridiculous workaround

Posted: January 24th, 2012     Reminders to myself

Since I installed Ubuntu 11.10, my Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card stutters and doesn’t play back sound. The way to fix this is to open terminal and run “ubuntu-bug”. That’s it. Plays back fine until next reboot.

Ridiculous bug.
