This can be reproduced by installing XBMC and playing then pausing a video (and presumably audio) file: http://810intrepid.wordpress.com/2008/11/19/xbmc-and-pulseaudio/ > One exception is that I have once observed the problem > happen while in the middle of playing sound. So have I (likewise only once). I've tried to fix these crashes by upgrading to pulseaudio 0.9.12, via a PPA, as recommended here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866965 - but that (and 0.9.13 - at least until version 0.9.13-4) has an even worse problem that causes it to crash every hour or so due to CPU overload: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=462200 I've rolled back to 0.9.10. Restarting Firefox (to restart Flash) every day or two is less annoying than restarting it every few minutes :-) Just an FYI - in case anyone else is thinking of making a run for Jaunty or the PPA hills. -- Can't play sound becuse of pulseaudio hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
