I have same problem with my Logitech Notebook Pro and on my friends webcam too, but i just do not have time to research it. I'd say, enabling video couse some delay in audio stream so pulseaudio hangs or some thing like this. Normally i have this with skype, not with google-talk, and it seems to depend on version of skype.
