Hi Filofel, sorry for my convoluted explanation. What made me suspect was that the freezes described occurred when a Compiz effect was at work, either when raising a window ("Glide 2" effect), or popping up a window during file transfer (same effect, if I remember correctly), or a drop-down menu ("Fade" effect) - see my original report. Also, having excluded the ratelimit.c: messages as potential errors following Daniel's message #18, I'm still left clueless as to why the freezes I experience involve (most of the times) audio being stuck in an endless loop. But, let me stress it once again, I'm not sure this switch to Metacity will help, for I have no clue what's triggering the freezes in the first place.
