ASYLUM: Sanitarium - Intro with extreme sound dropouts

[raziel-]

ScummVM 2.6.0git (Nov 24 2021 10:38:39)
Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 RGB zLib MPEG2 Theora AAC A/52 FreeType2 FriBiDi JPEG PNG GIF cloud (servers, local) TinyGL OpenGL

During the complete intro i get an extreme amount of sound dropouts (while the accomodating video plays fine, without any dropped frames)
CPU is at 89-93% max, same as in the game later on (in-game music and sound plays perfectly fine aswell)

I've recorded (phone) a ten second example of the main protagonist driving on the street, that's the best way to hear it, since no other ambience noise is distracting, find it attached)

Can you please check if the ​alternate demo of the game has the same problem? It uses Cinepak instead of Smacker.

@alexpnv

I'm so sorry, i don't know how i could miss your comment :-(

I came here to report that the slowdown is gone completely.

Just for completion i tried the linked demo and it runs fine aswell...though a little faster, but that was to be expected, since the demo has lower resolution.

Thank you for getting back and sorry once again for missing your comment :-/
