Title:
  (On usb card removed) pulseaudio process goes to 100% CPU and cannot
  be restarted

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  Description:  Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
  Release:      10.10

  When I unplug my USB sound card, which works fine, the pulse audio
  process goes to 100% CPU (on one processor) and remains in that state.

  Attempts at a restart result in:
  $ pse pulse
   2192 ?        00:00:42 pulseaudio
  $ sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
   * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
  $ pse pulse
   2192 ?        00:00:42 pulseaudio

  But the process is not really restarted.

  The only way to stop it is to kill it, but then it is not possible to
  start to process.

  marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse
   2192 ?        00:00:42 pulseaudio
  marc@niff:~ $ kill 2192
  marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse
  marc@niff:~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
   * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
  marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse

  There are a few issues here:
  1. The messages aren't useful, indeed they are inaccurate, and need to be 
improved
  2. There is no log file in /var/log, so how does one debug?
  3. The process shouldn't go to 100% CPU
  4. It should be possible to force a process restart
  5. It should be possible to start the process once killed.
