When I close the program sound is still working and it returns for a while if I restart the offending (VLC or HULU) application. I am currently running a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 i386 but had the same problem with Kubuntu 10.04 i686. I had installed the Alsa 1.0.23 drivers on the Kubuntu system and thought that was the issue so i did a fresh install using alsa 1.0.22 from the Ubuntu repositories but the problem remains. I also have the Pulseaudio equalizer 2.7 installed but the problem happens whether or not the equalizer is enabled.
