Here's some extra info on my problem (which may not be the same as Derek's).
Restarting X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace brought sound back. I tried suspend/resume 3 or 4 times after this and sound was fine. Then, I watched a Flash video (sound was working). With the Flash applet still open, I suspended and resumed, and sound was gone again. In the PulseAudio Volume Control I terminated the stream "ALSA plugin [firefox]". Now non-Flash sounds worked, but Flash videos would freeze. Restarting Firefox brought back Flash videos. This pattern is consistent: suspend/resume with a Flash video open breaks sound output until I terminate the stream/restart Firefox. The behavior is similar to a previous problem I had (although, in this case, the PulseAudio server does not seem to be dying): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=937114 -- [Intrepid] No sound after resuming from suspend/hibernation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
