Oops... seems somehow my actual bug description got lost during sending.
Here's what I intended to write:

    * What led up to the situation?
    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
      ineffective)?
    * What was the outcome of this action?

    I made a ~30 minute stereo recording with ardour 8, which sounds
fine when re-played from within the application.
    However, when I export the recording to an audio file (like wav or
mp3) and subsequently open the audio file
    with, say, vlc, audacity or clementine, it turns out that the
exported audio is choppy, i. e. there are lots
    of short gaps intersperesed all over the file.
    Also, the actual export job takes way longer than it used to be with
ardour 7.

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

    I expected the exported audio file to sound exactly as the recording
when played back from within ardour.
