Thanks to amaces, lanchon and the TWRP team I've got Marshmallow installed and working on my Nook HD+. All seems to be well, except for a problem with the audio: it will play a music track OK at first time of asking but if I pause playback and then resume it the audio is choppy. It seems to repeatedly and rapidly stop & start, or maybe what it's actually doing is repeatedly dropping fractions of a second of sound - it's difficult to tell.
If I pause music playback and play a video instead the choppy audio problem carries over to the sound on the video: the video looks fine and plays back smoothly, and although it sounds awful the audio seems to stay in sync with the video, in the sense that sound doesn't obviously over- or under-run the accompanying moving image.
Using MX Player to watch a video, if I switch from HW to SW decoding and back again it seems to fix the audio.
The choppiness also seems to go away if I just stop using the tablet for a while - but it comes back as soon as I play/pause/play music again. The same goes if I restart the tablet.
Any clues to what's going on and/or how to fix this? I can't find any other references to this problem so maybe it is just me...
