I'm experiencing a similar issue and would like to find out if its the same problem. Try running PulseAudio from the command line (after it has crashed or kill it if it is already running), for example: pulseaudio -vv
In my case the last line printed before dying is: Killed Which indicates it is receiving a SIGKILL for some reason. -- Pulseaudio dies after a while, usb audio card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366708 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
