Steve, I think you might be right about this being Flash's fault. Thinking back, I think maybe the problem has only happened to me when I left Hulu open. And Flash's ALSA sound support is known to be buggy, so that would make sense. But unfortunately Pulse output is the default ALSA plugin for ALL

flashplugin-nonfree/intrepid uptodate 10.0.12.36ubuntu1 I'd like to think that pulseaudio doesn't let a buggy app prevent all audio from playing. So even if the problem is with flash there is still a robustness issue with PA. -- Can't play sound becuse of pulseaudio hang

Yes, pulseaudio is definitely at fault, but it may be brought on by Flash. I recall that the issue is that Flash leaks ALSA handles or something, which might contribute to resource exhaustion in Pulse, and the error messages seems suggestive of that. -- Can't play sound becuse of pulseaudio hang

Happens to me most often when streaming video over the Internet (maybe once every 30-60 minutes, possibly around the times my bandwidth dips too low, though I'm not at all sure of that. I have to kill pulseaudio, restart Firefox (since it crashes when I kill pulseaudio), and re-open the video).

In that scenario, the sound card keeps replaying the last few hundred milliseconds of sound until pulseaudio is killed. This can be reproduced by installing XBMC and playing then pausing a video (and presumably audio) file: http://810intrepid.wordpress.com/2008/11/19/xbmc-and-pulseaudio/ One
