@Dove,

It's probable that everyone who uses pulseaudio as installed by Intrepid
will experience this bug.  The question is whether or not they'll
experience the long hang that helps us notice it -- and that is
determined by the networking configuration.

It appears to me that users who once had an IPV4-only system and
upgraded will avoid the wait for timeout caused by the bug (the alsa-
tools still look for the pulseaudio server, but fails to find it much
faster).  This is because the upgrade script notices the ipv6 section is
missing in /etc/hosts and installs one including the "localhost" name in
the ::1 line.

Users who manually add the "localhost" hostname to the ::1 line in
/etc/hosts also avoid this wait.  My guess is that users who disable
IPV6 after installing will also avoid this wait for timeout.
