One more observation, which gets me thinking that what me and Oren describes is maybe not quite the same as the original poster AndreK describes.
When I do as he says - bringing up the statistics - I get that it continuously increase that number "All Allocated Memory Blocks During Daemon Lifetime" even after killall npviewer.bin, and the Sound Preferences' Applications tab show no sources (no entries). But the "Currently Allocated Memory Blocks" number is small, 3 to 4. This number instantly goes up to 45-47 when the sounds starts playing (thus npviewer.bin has started to send sound, and the Applications-tab shows the Alsa plug-in). That number doubles again up to ~90 if I also start a youtube video in Chrome (thus getting a new entry in the Applications- tab), but not if I start a youtube video in Firefox (which already runs Pandora). So maybe this should be split into two bugs? I don't know. -- pulseaudio locks up firefox, won't play sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/497667 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
