** Description changed:

  Since about 3 days ago, after a certain period of time of using the
  audio output (whatever the program, either totem, vlc, flash, and
  whether with a single user connected since boot or with a second user
  session opened) the audio changes abruptly to a mix of cracks and rings
  (listen to the attached audio output). Nothing seems to correct the
- problem, even though I've managed to get the audio back to normal once
- by closing all audio applications for a while and trying again.
+ problem, even though it seems possible to get the audio back to normal
+ by closing all audio applications for a little while (less than 30
+ seconds AFAICT), including Firefox when there's a flash video on pause,
+ and trying again (if a second user is connected, same story, even this
+ user audio apps need to be shut down).
  
  The computer has an ICH10 Intel controller (GB EP-45 DS4). The computer
  is also affected by bug #433654, but the problem reported here wasn't
  there before (using Karmic since Alpha 4) and appears even if only one
  user is connected after boot.
  
  I've left Totem open with the problem while reporting the bug with
  ubuntu-bug. Computer has all updates, and was just booted 20 min ago,
  with Totem playing audio for about the same time before the problem
- occurred, and a single logged in.
