Package: pulseaudio Version: 0.9.21-3+b1 Severity: important Tags: patch In my setup, i'm using the built in intel hda soundcard. Attached to the usb port, i've got a midi interface (Midisprot 2x2). If the current user is member of the audio group, pulseaudio crashes always after ten minutes of playing sound with any application. The application looses it's connection to pulseaudio and i don't hear any sound until i restart that application.
My /var/log/sylog contains the following error message: pulseaudio[6370]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-card" (argument: "device_id="1" name="usb-0763_1002-00-M2x2" card_name="alsa_card.usb-0763_1002-00-M2x2" tsched=yes ignore_dB=no card_properties="module-udev-detect.discovered=1""): initialization failed. With the same logging time, /var/log/messages says: pulseaudio[6370]: pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting. The next line in syslog is then: pulseaudio[6376]: pid.c: Daemon already running. Soluten (callin it the "patch" ;-): The solution to the problem was to delete my current user from the audio group. This stops pulseaudio from trying to load the "module-alsa-card" every ten minutes. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.33.7.2-rt30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_CH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_CH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages pulseaudio depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii consolekit 0.4.1-4 framework for defining and trackin ii libasound2 1.0.23-2.1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libc6 2.11.2-9 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.19-3 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-9 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii libice6 2:1.0.6-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libltdl7 2.2.6b-2 A system independent dlopen wrappe ii libpulse0 0.9.21-3+b1 PulseAudio client libraries ii libsamplerate0 0.1.7-3 Audio sample rate conversion libra ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libsndfile1 1.0.21-3 Library for reading/writing audio ii libspeexdsp1 1.2~rc1-1 The Speex extended runtime library ii libudev0 164-3 libudev shared library ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxtst6 2:1.1.0-3 X11 Testing -- Record extension li ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii udev 164-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages pulseaudio recommends: ii gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio 0.10.24-1 GStreamer plugin for PulseAudio ii libasound2-plugins 1.0.23-1+b1 ALSA library additional plugins ii pulseaudio-esound-compat 0.9.21-3+b1 PulseAudio ESD compatibility layer ii pulseaudio-module-x11 0.9.21-3+b1 X11 module for PulseAudio sound se Versions of packages pulseaudio suggests: ii paman 0.9.4-1 PulseAudio Manager ii paprefs 0.9.9-2 PulseAudio Preferences ii pavucontrol 0.9.9-1 PulseAudio Volume Control ii pavumeter 0.9.3-1 PulseAudio Volume Meter ii pulseaudio-utils 0.9.21-3+b1 Command line tools for the PulseAu -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
