I rebooted my desktop after I made all the changes. Once I had sound working again I played Urban terror on different days and checked /var/log/messages after the sound failed, I consistently saw those messages logged.
Everytime I reboot my machine these are the last lines I see on /var/log/messages: Dec 11 23:40:36 cinux kernel: [ 10.075741] usplash:1034 freeing invalid memtype ffffffffc0000000-ffffffffc4000000 Dec 11 23:40:42 cinux pulseaudio[2704]: lock-autospawn.c: Cannot access autospawn lock -- sound is disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
