    poor sound in 9.10

    Ever since I upgraded to 9.10, I've had poor sound quality. There is occasional popping, hissing ans just generally poor sound. I've found several posts about loss of sound but no solution for bad sound quality. Didn't there used to be a way to select your sound in Ubuntu? I remember having a pull down choice of ALSA, Pulse or OSS. I can't find that any more and Pulse seems to be deemed the culprit in other posts I've read. How do I change to ALSA or OSS?

    Thanks,

    Check sound output device in System -> Preferences -> Sound and change it if there is any other choice available.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
