           Summary: Choppy Audio in Runescape
           Product: IcedTea-Web

If you go to Runescape.com and click "Play Now", your browser will load a JOGL
Java-applet based game. If you are using Sun's nsplugin, then you should hear 
smooth audio. If you are using IcedTea, then you could hear choppy audio.

Six months ago, I reported a similar issue in bug #664 where no audio could be
heard in Runescape. Denis Lila closed that bug after fixing an issue in
JNLPClassLoader, which should have made things work, but there seems to be
another regression somewhere. The nsplugin included in the official JDK
1.6.0.26 does not suffer from this issue.

I have encountered this issue on an amd64 Gentoo Linux system. It uses Linux
3.0.3, alsa-lib 1.0.24.1 gcj-jdk 4.4.6, IcedTea6 1.10.3, IcedTea-Web 1.1.3 and
JOGL 1.1.1a. I have tried downgrading components to Linux 2.6.39.4, IcedTea6
1.10 and IcedTea-Web 1.1, but I cannot eliminate the issue. As a shot in the
dark, I tried both Google Chrome 15.0.874.54 beta and Firefox 7.0.1, but
neither resolved the issue.
