Public bug reported: Was attempting to play the Youtube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noDAsZjvmSA
Instead of the sound track, there was loud static resembling white noise for the entire duration of the video. The same video played normally on another Lubuntu 12.10 installation I have here, as a Virtual Box guest on my MacBook. On my eMac, where the problem occurs, sound is working ok for playing audio CD's with Audacious and also with Gnome Mplayer.
