** Description changed: Occasionally when I boot into Ubuntu the sound will be non-existent. If - I mute and unmute the sound I hear a click in the headphones. If I do - nothing then I will hear an intermittent click first in the left side of - the head phones then the right side. + I mute and unmute the sound manager I hear a "static-like" click in the + headphones. The headphones are brand new and the problem was occuring + with my older headphones as well. I have no speakers for my computer. + + If I do nothing then I will hear (every few seconds) a click first in + the left side of the head phones then the right side. The sound will + continue to alternate like that. In the past booting into windows (I am dual booting) has fixed the problem although the sound was not working in Windows 7 either (only after I restart and boot into Ubuntu for a second time does it seem to - work). Also, now that the sound is not working the last OS I booted into - was Windows 7. + work). It should be noted that simply restarting my computer and booting into Ubuntu does NOT fix the problem. Could Win7 be toggling the sound? I am unable to kill the pulse audio process. It has a "nice" rating of -11. + + UPDATE: I just tested my "Windows is killing my sound" theory and it + seemed to hold true. I restarted my computer, booted into Windows 7, + then restarted my computer and booted back into Ubuntu. Sound now works. + Here's my recent timeline: + + Last night booted into Windows 7; turned off my computer and went to bed. + This morning booted into Ubuntu to discover no sound. + Restarted my computer in hopes of fixing the problem; still no sound. + Restarted my computer and booted into Windows 7 + Restarted my computer and booted into Ubuntu. Sound works! + + Hope this helps...
