Pulseaudio crashed. At least I think that it was pulseaudio but it may
have been indicator-sound. Indicator-sound appears muted and when I
click on sound preferences it shows "Waiting for sound system to
respond". I have a good feeling that if I don't hit the cancel button,
this would show for eternity.
Output from dmesg is: indicator-sound[5879]: segfault at 8 ip 00fed599
sp bf8fb7d0 error 4 in libpulse.so.0.12.2[fbb000+3f000]
Sound still works but I have no way of adjusting the volume or any sound
settings. pulseaudio does not appear to be running as when I type "ps
-e | grep pulse" no lines get displayed.
When I attempt to run pulseaudio from the commandline by running
"pulseaudio" it looks good and gives only this message: "W: pid.c: Stale
PID file, overwriting."
However, now when I run Sound Preferences it starts up and appears
normal at first but output is "Dummy Audio Stereo" and volume controls
still don't work.
Known workaround: reboot. This has happened before and reboot as a fix
is not a good fix in my opinion.
Let me know if there is any other information that I can give to help
fix pulseaudio.
