I note an interesting variation of this bug which I don't think anyone
else has reported (ubuntu 10.10).
I am unable to play video at any time with totem (resulting in the
pa_stream_cork() failed messageboxes as other have described).
However, using either rhythmbox (which I would naively assume is using
all the same backend elements as totem), playback succeeds, but only if
a network connection is available. No error messages are reported if no
network connection is available, but the sounds frequently pauses and
comes out in mixed-up order.
I see the same behaviour with mplayer (works providing a network
connection is available, otherwise sound pauses and shuffles as with
rhythmbox). No errors are shown except for a warning that my system is
too slow to play the video (not the case). Mplayer can be made to work
normally without a network connection by killing pulse and using -ao
{alsa, oss}.
I looked in my pulseaudio configuration and could not obviously find
anything that should be network dependent (network sinks, etc) - the
configuration should be as-shipped, anyway.
I'm not sure if this is sufficiently different to count as a separate
bug. I will see if the PPA above solves any of these issues.
