Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I tried to reproduce this behavior, but got bug #2017120 instead. Relevant failure there: Error: command ['pacmd', 'list'] failed with exit code 1: No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2016712 Title: Sound/audio related problems option never completes Status in apport package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: 1. ubuntu-bug 2. Sound/audio related problems 3. Mic, Internal (built-in audio - HDA Intel PCH) 4. No sound at all 5. Enter password 6. Dialog box "Next, up to two recordings will be performed. Close this dialog to start recording some sounds. After some seconds, the recorded sound should be played back to you through the default sound output" shows up, with a Close button. Click the Close button. Now the "Collecting problem information" box with the oscillating bar keeps on the screen. No sound is ever played back, nor does the process ever seem to finish, so in the end no bug is filed.
