Title:
  hda-intel: spurious response and pulseaudio fails to start with no
  reason

Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have two desktops, Unity and KDE, in KDE pulseaudio starts without
  problems, but when I end session in KDE and begin it with Unity, then
  pulseaudio fails to start, I have sound in KDE even in lightdm, but
  not in Unity, this lack of sound makes Unity experience to suck at
  all.

  Why pulseaudio cannot start when I log on with Unity?

  When I try to start it manually it just drops this message:

  E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Falló el inicio del demonio.

  
  The same message when I logon: 

  Jan 26 00:33:00 64-desktop pulseaudio[25578]: [pulseaudio] 
module-udev-detect.c: inotify_init1() failed: Demasiados archivos abiertos
  Jan 26 00:33:00 64-desktop pulseaudio[25578]: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed 
to load module "module-udev-detect" (argument: ""): initialization failed.
  Jan 26 00:33:00 64-desktop pulseaudio[25578]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module 
load failed.
  Jan 26 00:33:00 64-desktop pulseaudio[25578]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Fallo al 
intentar iniciar el demonio.
  Jan 26 00:33:00 64-desktop pulseaudio[25575]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Falló el 
inicio del demonio.

  If the problem is with udev, why it fails with Unity, and not in KDE?.

  I actually have sound, but not trough pulseaudio; the speaker icon in
  the system tray shows disabled and I don't have login sound, I know it
  is disabled by default, I enabled it, so I expect to hear login sound
  and have pulseaudio working.

  I noticed this problem with pulseaudio since an upgrade that the system made 
automatically on January 18, these packages:
   
  Start-Date: 2013-01-18  10:24:02
  Install: linux-headers-3.2.0-36:amd64 (3.2.0-36.57, automatic), 
linux-image-3.2.0-36-generic:amd64 (3.2.0-36.57), 
linux-headers-3.2.0-36-generic:amd64 (3.2.0-36.57, automatic)
  Upgrade: linux-generic:amd64 (3.2.0.35.40, 3.2.0.36.43), 
x11proto-gl-dev:amd64 (1.4.14-2, 1.4.16-1~precise1), 
linux-headers-generic:amd64 (3.2.0.35.40, 3.2.0.36.43), 
linux-image-generic:amd64 (3.2.0.35.40, 3.2.0.36.43), linux-libc-dev:amd64 
(3.2.0-35.55, 3.2.0-36.57), x11proto-dri2-dev:amd64 (2.6-2, 2.8-1~precise1)
  End-Date: 2013-01-18  10:30:02

  I personally can't find any relation of these packages with
  pulseaudio, but after I installed the new kernel, pulseaudio sucks
  when I log on with Unity.
