Sorry I'm not sure about the pulseaudio update because I just set it to do all the auto updates recomended after installing from the alternate download CD. The settings changes which seemed to sort it for five minits were system/preferences/sound, and I thought it may have been set for another sound card than my Toshiba equium has--? I rebooted into the old XP to make sure it wasn't an electronic hardware problem(it sounded a bit lke dying capacitors); all the sound worked OK there. I installed the Eee Ubuntu and the sound was OK there.am re- installed the 8.10 and it was still the same Dr Who soundscape. I've re-re-instaled from the USB start disc I made after the first install-everything is fine now.-!???
