This isn't completely fixed. It's still here in a strange way.
For my account, the issue is gone. But for the second user account on my
machine, the bug still exists. Here are peculiar things I can easily
reproduce:
Consider user A my account - sound always works fine. User B is the
account where sound will still start muted.
1. Log into user B first after booting the computer.
2. Sound is muted.
3. Switch to user A.
4. Sound works. (Login theme plays and everything.)
5. Switch back to user B - sound is no longer muted and is working.
6. Switch to user A and log out.
7. Switch to user B and log out.
8. Log back into user B.
9. Sound is muted again.
10. Repeat steps 3-9 as many times as you want.
It's like Pulse isn't "working" for user B unless user A logged in at
some point during user B's session. I wouldn't know what's really going
on, but I can reproduce it trivially everytime with those steps. It
doesn't require rebooting or anything. Any idea?
** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu)
Status: Fix Released => Confirmed
