Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. If you could test the current Ubuntu development version, this would help us a lot. If you can test it, and it is still an issue, we would appreciate if you could upload updated logs relevant for this particular issue.

I would also appreciate if you check System > Sound > Output and change the output device to see if it solves your problem.

Thank you for your interrest for this bug.
I have make some tests with the latest updates packages and there is no
change with this bug. I have try to change the output device and this
make the sound off.

The principal sound control seems to act on the pitch and not on the
volume and the sound control from the application is really difficult to
adjust (very high to very low instantly.

If you can send me the procedure to upload logs, i can send you these.

Best regards,

Olivier FRIES

I cannot reproduce this issue with Ubuntu-10.04 or 10.10 could you by any chance also confirm if the issue is fixed with a later version of Ubuntu?
