[TynesideLUG] Shell script to get rid of speaker ticking noise on recent Ubuntu flavours

[Ian Bruntlett]

Hi,

This had been discussed earlier. I got the bug to appear on lubuntu 20.04.1
and Ubuntu 20.04.1

#!/usr/bin/env bash
echo Shell script $0 to get rid of ticking noise is running.
while true
do
    date
    echo -e "\aShh..."
    sleep 5
done

Note that the above echo command does not make a sound but I think it
interacts with the sound system.

I think the duration of the sleep is specific to the hardware in use.

HTH,


Ian
