I have now also tested this issue against the 2.6.34-020634rc6-generic #020634rc6 upstream kernel, and I confirm that the problem also exists when using that kernel.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: pulseaudio On an install of Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS AMD64, I could reboot the system and it would come back up and consistently have audio. However, once I configured a bridged network on my eth0 device in /etc/network/interfaces, the system would no longer have audio after a reboot. The bridge is working fine. My /etc/network/interfaces is configured as follows: -------------------------------------- auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The bridge network interface auto br0 iface br0 inet dhcp bridge_ports eth0 bridge_fd 9 bridge_hello 2 bridge_maxage 12 bridge_stp off # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual ------------------------------------------ I can usually get my sound back by running "alsa force-reload" from the desktop. Running this from rc.local during system boot does not work, however. When this happens, my sound hardware is not detected. No sound hardware shows up in "Sound Preferences" under Hardware, and in "Output" all I have is a "Dummy Output". But of course, without the bridge, the hardware is detected and everything works. Bridging is an important feature, and I think it's rather important to get this fixed in the LTS release. Please let me know how I can help test or fix things.
