Title:
(On usb card removed) pulseaudio process goes to 100% CPU and cannot
be restarted
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
Description: Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
Release: 10.10
When I unplug my USB sound card, which works fine, the pulse audio
process goes to 100% CPU (on one processor) and remains in that state.
Attempts at a restart result in:
$ pse pulse
2192 ? 00:00:42 pulseaudio
$ sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
* PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
$ pse pulse
2192 ? 00:00:42 pulseaudio
But the process is not really restarted.
The only way to stop it is to kill it, but then it is not possible to
start to process.
marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse
2192 ? 00:00:42 pulseaudio
marc@niff:~ $ kill 2192
marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse
marc@niff:~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
* PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
marc@niff:~ $ pse pulse
There are a few issues here:
1. The messages aren't useful, indeed they are inaccurate, and need to be
improved
2. There is no log file in /var/log, so how does one debug?
3. The process shouldn't go to 100% CPU
4. It should be possible to force a process restart
5. It should be possible to start the process once killed.
