same issue here for me it was a conflict with asterisk (which is started early as system service); it blocks the sound card so pulseaudio cannot grab the card
I found out what was going on by pulseaudio -k pulseaudio -vvvvvvv which indicated that the sound card couldn't be opened and then I figured out with sudo lsof | grep pcm who has opened pcm devices after preventing asterisk from starting, pulseaudio works again I guess there might be more programs which conflict with pulseaudio... -- pulse audio null output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373864 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
