I wrote the acoustic measuring activity, so I'm interested in exactly what
kinds of problems you saw.  I'd also like to know which version you are using.

You're not the first person to report a problem using acoustic measure in
a classroom with many XOs, but so far I haven't gotten enough information
to figure out what is going on.

If it's convenient for you, I'm happy to have this discussion here, or as
a new ticket on dev.laptop.org.

If we can find it, we can fix it.
