Re: [pygame] Sound still glitchy in 1.8.1rc1 on Ubuntu

I'am not an expert in pygame audio but:

1. It makes any diference if you reduce the sleep time? 
Say, 1/30 sec by example.

2. It makes some diference if you initialize the mixer with diferent buffer
sizes ? 
That was pointed to me by Patrick Mullen time ago, and the advice
 periodically resurfaces. Sometimes, especially with old hardware,
increasing the buffer size alleviates the problem ( at the cost of more
latency, If i remember well).

 ex: 
     # last param is buffer size 
     pygame.mixer.init(44100, -16, True, 1024)

3. Your real code really dont pump the event queue? Maybe .get_busy()
updates all necesary inner state, but a lot of pygame functionallity
depends on the event queue being pumped.
