1. I just tried the nvidia-current drivers from repository. They don't work for me, either. To install the 275* drivers you have to get rid of the Ubuntu installed nvidia-current package. I used dpkg -P nvidia- current... probably not a good idea. 2. Sorry to report that I am wrong, this isn't

Sorry for your problem. In my case, removing the Timidity daemon solved the problem. (Silly of me to install it.) I have on board sound hardware. lspci found the hardware, ALSA found the hardware, but Pulseaudio (often) insisted that I had no sound card... until I purged the timidity daemon.
