Yes, I agree that the problem seems to be related to pulseaudio (it is the only part of the sound system that includes networking), but I really like pulse and don't want to uninstall it. Aside from that, I'm really not sure what the application is doing. In the strace above, you can see that

It seems I can't help myself :) Here are the results: - commenting out everything in /usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf: amixer responds fast - removing the mdns references in /etc/nsswitch.conf no change. However, removing dns does work. So the bug is likely in libnss_dns, which is part of glibc

Well, my guess goes like this: According to the default /etc/default/pulseaudio.conf pulseaudio is only started when somebody has logged in. If pulseaudio is the default sound sink and you are logged into X, amixer will find the pulseaudio server, get the information it needs and be done with it

Might this be pulseaudio-related? I saw some references to pulseaudio in the strace above, removed pulseaudio, and the problem doesn't seem to have occured for me since. I can't quite explain why, yet, though ;). -- amixer timeout when muting sound card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295136

I just found out the official live cd (ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso) exhibits the same behaviour on a laptop I am currently testing on; as this is a bog-standard Sony Vaio laptop (Centrino platform, core2duo), I'm afraid this might be a much more widespread problem than just my system. Maybe a
