Title:
PulseAudio: Unable to create stream: Too large
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
I have been frustrated with sound failures for as long as pulseaudio
has been a part of Linux, and I'm trying my best to diagnose problems.
In Ubuntu 9.10, I'm finding that when some apps run, no other app can
output sound, and they just freeze. If I am running mythfrontend, and
try to play a video from gnome-terminal, the video doesn't even start.
When I exit mythfrontend, the video starts. Likewise, any alert sounds
(like from pidgin) all play after mythfrontend exits, which is
extremely annoying. If I play a streamed Flash movie in Firefox, most
of the time any app that tries to output sound after it will be
silent, and eventually sound won't work from Flash either.
I tried running firefox in debug mode, and saw some interesting
output. The relevant portion is HUNDREDS of lines saying
"ALSA lib pcm_pulse.c:724:(pulse_prepare) PulseAudio: Unable to create
stream: Too large".
I searched the PA bug database and didn't find that phrase in any
existing bugs. I did see mention of that error in Fedora
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=554568 but with different
circumstances.
This is supposedly fixed in PA itself according to lennart. See
