Hello, 5 days ago archlinux updated zynaddsubfx from version 2.4.1-7 to 2.4.2-1. There have since been regressions.

zynaddsubfx -O jack -I alsa

produces crackling sound with a kind of high pitched whistle. Regardless of instrument. There is no such problem on the previous version.

Seccondly, zynaddsubfx no longer automatically detects what audo interface to use. I must launch it with zynaddsubfx -O jack -I alsa. This wouldn't normally bug me, but your default is OSS which isn't even installed on my system. Why the new default?

I believe that this was due to a (now fixed) roundoff bug in the chorus effect.

That was a side effect of the new io system.
The code is now updated to have the standard alsa in jack out interface by default.
(configurable at compile time)

Could you verify that these problems are fixed by building from git?

git clone git://zynaddsubfx.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/zynaddsubfx/zynaddsubfx zynaddsubfx
cd zynaddsubfx
git checkout --track -b arch-regressions origin/bugfix/arch-regressions
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Ok, I just replicated the bug after it was discussed in #jack.
It appears to be poor resampling.
This issue is fixed on my local copy currently and it should make its way into git today.
A new release should be made fairly soon as to fix this issue for everyone.
