This issue is reproducable on my machine, i didn't tested it on another machine, but because of to bug #903799 i think it will be reproducable on other hardware also. I use a DELL Precision M4400 Laptop with an HDA Intel STAC92xx Soundcard.
The specific steps should be: 1) Install Ubuntu 11.10. 2) Install Sofiasip Extensions to enable SIP telephony in empathy 3) Configure a SIP Account in empathy (i used 1&1, a german SIP Provider) 4) Start a call from empathy to another phone 5) After approximatly 10 seconds, pulseaudio will use 100% CPU. This will just happen with empathy and pulseaudio. All other software packages (like rhythmbox) did't has any problem (also with the default settings in gstreamer-properties). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956262 Title: pulseaudio crashes after 10s of empathy VoIP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/956262/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
