Behavior

When playing back this tone, the audio crackles and can sound garbled. This behavior is also present with mp3 playback, which is how i first came across the issue.

here is test mp3 code:

import board
from audiomp3 import MP3Decoder
import audiobusio

mp3files = ["slow.mp3", "happy.mp3"]

mp3 = open(mp3files[0], "rb")
decoder = MP3Decoder(mp3)
audio = audiobusio.I2SOut(board.D9, board.D10, board.D11)

while True:
    for filename in mp3files:
        decoder.file = open(filename, "rb")
        audio.play(decoder)
        print("playing", filename)
        while audio.playing:
            pass

mp3 files are available here on learn repo: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/tree/main/CircuitPython_Essentials/CircuitPython_Audio_Out_MP3

Description

i tested with the max98357a stereo dac and pcm5122 line out dac to rule out a speaker issue.

Additional information

the issue is not present with wav file playback. i ran the street chicken example with both DACs:

import audiocore
import board
import audiobusio

audio = audiobusio.I2SOut(board.D9, board.D10, board.D11)

with open("StreetChicken.wav", "rb") as wave_file:
    wav = audiocore.WaveFile(wave_file)

    print("Playing wav file!")
    audio.play(wav)
    while audio.playing:
        pass

print("Done!")

(wav file here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/blob/main/PCM510x_Examples/CircuitPython_WAV/StreetChicken.wav)

and that plays clearly
