It is still a big issue! One of my machines, that never had audio problems with previous Ubuntu versions, renders audio playback unusable with Lucid. It doesn't matter what program do I use and I doesn't matter whether it's audio, video or flash playback. It keeps skipping.
Today I started PA with debug and when it started skipping audio, PA gave output: D: alsa-sink.c: Wakeup from ALSA! I: alsa-sink.c: Underrun! I: alsa-sink.c: Increasing wakeup watermark to 50,00 ms D: protocol-native.c: Underrun on ''The Racing Rats' by 'Editors'', 0 bytes in queue. D: protocol-native.c: Requesting rewind due to rewrite.

And it goes on and on and on, until at some point it plays ok for few minutes, then starts skipping again.
