Public bug reported:

Hi all,

Since upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10, sound stops working after a while.
The issue was not present in 8.04.

Steps to reproduce for me are:
1) Boot Ubuntu
2) Open rhythmbox and play some mp3s - everything works fine
3) Stop music
4) Go to work :)
5) Come back home, press the play button on rhythmbox and the application 
freezes completely. 
6) Watching Youtube videos have no sound either, and the videos hang after 2 
seconds.
7) Going to System>Preferences>Sound and clicking on Sound Playback "Test" 
hangs for a while and then shows "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! 
audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect: Timeout"

Notes:
I have never seen the sound stop working while I was using the computer, so 
maybe it is related to the screensaver or some power management process. I 
haven't found any workaround to fix the issue, besides rebooting the computer.

Please find below some information that I hope could help resolve the
issue. Please let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!
