Bug#395893: pulseaudio-module-hal: pulseaudio fails to start

Package: pulseaudio-module-hal
Version: 0.9.5-7
Followup-For: Bug #395893

Somehow pulseaudio stopped to work on my system after I used it (on the
same hardware) for some time.  Now when I try to start it I get
defiant:~% LANG=C pulseaudio -v -v -v
core-util.c: Successfully gained nice level -15.
core-util.c: Successfully enabled SCHED_FIFO scheduling.
caps.c: dropping root rights.
main.c: daemon startup failed.
defiant:~%

and /var/log/syslog contains

Are the alsa devices still there? Do other audio applications still work?

It looks like your alsa devices have disappeared for some reason. Did you
perhaps suspend or hibernate the machine?

I rebooted my machine to (an old desktop) and still have the same
problem.  Then
I moved /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-hal-detect.so to /tmp and
pulseaudio starts again.

I guess what I lost through that is that pulseaudio detects when I plug
in my USB headset.  Anyway, seems more a hal problem than a
pulseaudio-module-hal, no?

Best,
  Norbert

It sounds like a hal problem, yes.
