I'd just like to add that I'm also seeing this issue. When I run powertop it reports this:
An audio device is active 100.0% of the time: hwC0D1 Conexant ID 2bfa As I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 (not Kubuntu) I don't think it is knotify or kmix related as I don't have those processes running. Let me know if you would like any further log information added. -- "an audio device is active 100.0% of the time" in KDE according to powertop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521424 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
