The system is a typical workstation with all the GNOME-bloat (and hence also pulseaudio) installed. root@darkside:~# COLUMNS=72 dpkg -l libxcb1 | grep ^i ii libxcb1 1.7-4 X C Binding root@darkside:~# echo q | alsamixer Segmentation fault (core dumped) root@darkside:~# dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libxcb1_1.7-4_i386.deb dpkg: warning: downgrading libxcb1 from 1.8-1 to 1.7-4.
