Title: skype occasionally makes constant crackling / humming sound until restarted or pulseaudio killed Status in “skype” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Occasionally my Lenovo t440s starts to make a constant crackling / humming sound. This doesn't stop sound from being played, but if no sound is playing, the noise persists. As it's a new laptop, I thought it might be a hardware issue. It almost sounds like a bad earth connection. However, the culprit seems to be pulseaudio since killing it and restarting solves the problem.
