I run pulseaudio for days on end. It drives a house sound system, which plays music and radio to a cron schedule, even when I am away. I have a USB sound card and an internal pci sound device both driven via a combined sink.

Every few days or so, the pulseaudio server dies with the one of following messages. Logging out-in restores the service. The problem is that I'd like to have it last at least 2-3 weeks.

localhost pulseaudio[25023]: memblock.c: Assertion 'pa_atomic_load(&b->pool->stat.n_imported) > 0' failed at pulsecore/memblock.c:634, function memblock_replace_import(). Aborting.

localhost pulseaudio[19753]: memblock.c: Assertion 'pa_atomic_load(&b->pool->stat.n_imported) > 0' failed at pulsecore/memblock.c:188, function stat_remove(). Aborting.

I have only recently joined the mailing list and I have not seen any threads that deal with this particular problem. Any advice appreciated.

Here are my my machine environment:
