I fixed it on my end by re-installing Ubuntu from scratch. You should probably look into my logs to find out what could have caused it though.

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After I did an update via system update, my system stopped working with audio. I then viewed the audio control panel and non of my output/input sources appear. I'm assuming that a component that Pulse Audio uses has been updated and ether Pulse Audio does not know how to communicate with it, or the component was not tested before being released. I have not changed any of my hardware configurations, so it cannot be a hardware issue. Also using XBMC and I'm guessing XBMC backed down to using ASLA, I am able to set HDMI out (which I had to change from previous configuration which I'm assuming is because Pulse Audio is unable to start) and it works fine until I stop using it for awhile. After I stop using it for awhile, I have to reboot the system to get XBMC working again. The way my stereo system (A Yamaha Receiver) is reacting to this is it's showing it has audio coming from the computer one second, then the other second it doesn't have audio. I'm assuming this is the daemon of Pulse Audio restarting over and over again after it cannot start. I ran pulse audio in verbose mode to show what module is causing it to fail to load, and it is module-systemd-login. The reason it is failing to load is "Failed to create session monitor: No space left on device" but none of my disks are anywhere near being used up, nor is my ram, so I have no idea as to what it could be referring to... Maybe it's referring to space in the audio hardware??? I do not know... I have attached the logs on here. Any help would be useful in getting my audio back, I'm a hacker/developer/all around geek who loves the terminal, so please ask any questions! Please do feel free to email me, I want my audio back!
