I got this problem too. Had no problem with Jaunty at all, but after update to Karmic some of my colleagues complained about sound sometimes stopping (and only a reboot would fix it). They said that it mostly occurs when watching videos in Firefox (I mean Flash based videos like YouTube, etc.). Yesterday it happened to me too. I'm using pulseaudio in an LTSP setup (ie. LTSP server + thin clients). I've noticed that once sound was gone, the pulseaudio daemon process was not running on the client anymore. I've also found those "ratelimit.c" syslog entries from pulseaudio that others have mentioned before. Unfortunately I've not yet found an easy to reproduce test case that would cause the pulseaudio daemon to crash. Because I think this is what's happening.
