Update: After several days of flawless audio, I suddenly started getting an error message when I tried to run my command-line string. I would instantly get a message telling me that the module had failed to load. All versions of the packages were in order with this thread's workaround.
For some reason, "pulseaudio-module-hal" got dropped from my system during one of the recent Ubuntu auto-updates. It took me a long time to figure out that this is what happened. After adding the module, I can now use my commands as before and get audio to work again. Hope this helps someone else out there... -- [Jaunty Alpha4] Bluetooth Headset pairs but freezes the system when used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327284 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
