[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1074968] Re: Pulseaudio leading to rtkit making hard kernel lock-up
I can confirm this. I've attached my syslog before the lock-up. Interestingly, it has this line in the middle: alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_avail() returned a value that is exceptionally large: 862552 bytes (4889 ms). pulseaudio[2079]: [alsa-sink-CX20585 Analog] alsa-util.c: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers. I pkill -9'd the pulseaudio process, but it continued freezing again after the process respawned. ** Attachment added: Extract of syslog https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1074968/+attachment/3924413/+files/syslog-extract.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074968 Title: Pulseaudio leading to rtkit making hard kernel lock-up Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 12.10 it takes about five minutes to boot my system while the system load goes crazy and unity occasionally crashes once or twice in the process.
