Public bug reported:

I have a Via  8233A soundcard. When there is just one virtual terminal,
sound seems to work fine.

However, when I open a second terminal by locking the screen, and then
clicking on "Switch User", when gdm starts, it repeats the Ubuntu
drumbeat ad infinitum. If I switch back to the original VT (Ctrl-
Alt-F7), the sound stops.

If I switch back to VT8, there is also no sound. Until that is I try to
play a sound in VT8, (e.g. using aplay). In thise case the first half
second or so of the sound repeats ad infinitum. Sounds still play fine
when I switch back to VT7.

If a sound is playing in VT7 and I switch to VT8, the VT7 sound starts
repeating, though it will start playing properly again on return to VT7.

If I log in as a different user in a terminal window in VT7 I can still
play sounds fine.
