2017-06-07 Thread Phil Hord
Public bug reported: On Ubuntu 16.10 The pulseaudio daemon dies occasionally. It's probably caused by audio output activity, but I can't be sure it always stops during playback because I can't always hear it (headphones plugged in but not on my head). It doesn't seem to die as much when I'm

Each time this failure occurs it is sufficient to run "pulseaudio --start" to get my devices back online, then restart the audio apps so they can find the device again. I normally use the external audio device (headphone jack) on a hot- plugged ThinkPad OneLink Plus dock. I have not seen

Fixed in 4.4.0-28? I had this same problem when I updated to 16.4 last month on 4.4.0-24. It worked fine when I booted from any of the 4.2 revisions I had previously (4.2.0-16, 4.2.0-36, 4.2.0-38). Today I was about to try the 4.4.9 kernels and noticed that Ubuntu had 4.4.0-28 available. I
