Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

If you play music and the pulse audio-servers get killed or disappears
in an unexpected way, rhythmbox freezes.

1) Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1, Release: 8.04

2) ~$ apt-cache policy rhythmbox
rhythmbox:
  Installed: 0.11.5-0ubuntu8
  Candidate: 0.11.5-0ubuntu8
  Version table:
 *** 0.11.5-0ubuntu8 0
        500 http://no.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.11.5-0ubuntu6 0
        500 http://no.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages

3) Player displays an error message. After the error message has been
acknowledged by the user, the player should quit or make an attempt to
connect to alsa in stead of pulseaudio.

4) The application freezes. If you run rhythmbox with the -d parameter,
you will see the following messages in the terminal:

(20:06:16) [0x80dc408] [rb_shell_player_error] rb-shell-player.c:3031: playback 
error while playing: Disconnected: Connection terminated
(20:06:16) [0x80dc408] [error_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3184: exiting error hander


Reproduction steps:

a) Start rhythmbox (preferebly from a terminal with -d as parameters, for the 
extra debug information)
b) Play a jolly tune
c) Kill all "pulse"-processes running as your user
d) The application should now be in the state described at point 4)

Regards, Trygve
