This Bug happens in ubuntu x64 (stable release) too. Makes every system unusable after some time. After a day, pulseaudio consumes 3 of 4 G of RAM and 2G swap. It eats up ~ 0,4 Meg every 5 seconds directly after the system has started. This happens until the system is unable to handle this issue. I think this is really a major issue because the system is getting unusable slow after some time. Please note that no audio application is running (except the default Ubuntu system sounds).
