When playing two mp3 songs at once, PulseAudio starts to generate a lot of crackling.

Every time.

2. mplayer second-song.mp3
  
Actual results:
Both songs played + lots of crackling.

Expected results:
Both songs played.

Additional info:
If I play both songs using hardware mixing on my E-mu 1212m card, it works normally.
If I play both songs on same card using pulseaudio mixing, it crackles.

There is additional information in this mailing list thread: https://tango.0pointer.de/pipermail/pulseaudio-discuss/2008-September/002374.html

However, it isn't specific to HDA. Happens with other cards too.

play something with "padsp realplay", pause it, then continue, you will hear some a fierce noise. Is this a same problem or not?
