I had an identical problem to Patrick's on a Thinkpad T410 running Natty. It seems that pulseaudio is not running .
$ ps ax|grep pulse 3111 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep pulse If I try to start pulse I get $pulseaudio E: module-alsa-card.c: Failed to find a working profile. E: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-card" (argument: "device_id="29" name="platform-thinkpad_acpi" card_name="alsa_card.platform-thinkpad_acpi" tsched=yes ignore_dB=no card_properties="module-udev-detect.discovered=1""): initialization failed. This stops sound working - once I kill this process sound works again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773443 Title: [natty] pulseaudio stopped working on ThinkPad T61 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
