Public bug reported:
I have a few hundred thousand of these entries in my /var/log/syslog:
May 5 18:05:34 hunt pulseaudio[15247]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed.
May 5 18:05:34 hunt pulseaudio[15247]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to
initialize daemon.
May 5 18:05:34 hunt pulseaudio[15244]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup
failed.
May 5 18:05:35 hunt pulseaudio[15251]: [pulseaudio] module-udev-detect.c:
Failed to scan for devices.
May 5 18:05:35 hunt pulseaudio[15251]: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load
module "module-udev-detect" (argument: ""): initialization failed.
This is likely to be related to my 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS upgrade, which I did
a few days ago:
