Are you running any applications, particularly those involving sound, as root, particularly in response to some previous problem?
no
Is it just that binary that goes missing, or does apt/dpkg actually show that the entire package is uninstalled? The pulseaudio package contains about 216 files. Have they all gone, or just the one binary? (Run $ dpkg -L pulseaudio to list them.)
I can answer today, as /usr/bin/pulseaudio was not there this morning: It's the only missing files. All other files of the package are still there. I'll enable again my monitoring every minute, hoping that observing a process will not modify it, as in quantum physics. best regards, -- Pierre Frenkiel
