Public bug reported:

[Please fix my package choice].

I'm on Ubuntu Karmic alpha with all updates to date.  I'm on a second-
generation MacBook.  My sound worked perfectly under Jaunty and Karmic
until the recent Pulse Audio updates.  Now many of my applications are
hit and miss - youtube won't play sound but games under wine will play
sound.  But I'm not complaining about that in this bug report.

If I look at my processes under System Monitor, I have about 30
instances of "aplay", each of which is using 800, 804 or 808 kbytes of
RAM and currently sleeping.  I presume that these are sounds that were
supposed to play but have failed to do so given the new audio
architecture changes.  I can kill them manually or using "pulseaudio
-k".

I have selected "Sound" from my System->Preferences menu to see if I can
fix it.   It is misbehaving.  The sound preferences window has no title
and no "X" in the close button's area.  The window is about 3 screens
high and cannot be resized.  If I select the tabs, the screen is only
partially drawn - it's as though it wants to spend about a minute
redrawing the screen but it never actually gets there.

I realize that the underlying problem is with Pulse Audio, but still
Sound Preferences shouldn't behave like this.  Screenshots should
explain.
