user.log has this 3 times: Nov 28 23:55:49 coffee-bean pulseaudio[6524]: module-alsa-sink.c: Got POLLERR from ALSA I can fix by killing Pulse and restarting it. Note: I recently was having problems with my laptop's fan ramping up and down... using this thread as guidance: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=977347 i found that i could fix it with a firmware upgrade, the current firmware version is listed below. UNFORTUNATELY, i don't really use sound much at all so i am not sure if the problem started after the firmware upgrade :/ The Dell fw update may have touched on sensor related stuff (i think fan ramping up and down was related to a sensor issue).
