The problem here it seems is that for some reason my pulse context or
the sink info pointer is null. What is really odd here is that this
piece of code has not been touched for a year. I'm not sure if its a
pulse problem or the sound service. I have had a few of these crashes
reported recently so it is something consistent. Have you experienced
pulse dying on you at any point.

If pulse dies you should see the icon on the panel go to audio-output-
none-symbolic. But of course on a normal system pulse would
automatically respawn resulting in you not being able to catch the icon
on the screen.

Either way this code should be rock solid in Natty (code base was
refactored heavily between release 0.5.7 and tomorrows 0.5.9).

Any chance you could follow these instructions to turn off autospawn on your 
system.

The drawback of this is that you will need to start pulse manually after
starting up and it won't restart if it goes down but at least we will
know its unstable and from there try to collect some debug info.
