I associated my audio problems with Totem, because that's where they
first appeared, after an update. However, I have no sound at all when I
boot using the current defaults.

In Sound Preferences Panel, testing sound playback for Sound Events and
for Music and Movies fails no matter what option is selected:

Autodetect: 
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! 
gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument"

ALSA:
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! 
gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback."

ESD:
no result---"testing pipeline" keeps testing indefinitely, unresponsive to 
"OK", Window will not close, had to force quit.

OSS: 
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! 
gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback."

PulseAudio Sound Server:
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! 
gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument"

The reason? Someone (not me, I presume as part of a recent update) has
changed my system so that it boots kernel 2.6.24.19-server. When I boot
with 2.6.24.19-generic all the problems disappear, except that volume
control refuses to control volume--- I can mute, but not adjust---it's
all or nothing.
