Bug Description
I'm using the following
Software:
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Upgraded 8.10 > 9.04 jaunty release partially updated (slow link sorry), And client chroot rebuid (/home/ remains the same)
Linux servercam 2.6.28-11-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 02:48:10 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
ltsp-server 5.1.65-0ubuntu2
ltsp-server-
pulseaudio 1:0.9.14-0ubuntu20
gnome-applets 2.26.1-0ubuntu1
Hardware:
Intel S3000AHV board 32bit + Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz + 4Gb RAM 667 Mhz (NO SOUND CARD!!!)
The sound playing is ok just after login with any media player (vlc, totem, rythmbox, mplayer, etc) but after a while (5 to 20 minutes randomly) the sound stop responding and the volume applet show no device to attach to (before this ocurs it show the local sis chipset via pulseaudio)
It seems like is a combination of ltsp sound handling + pulse + gnome? problem.
I supposed that the sound work with any problem after the upgrade, but it's not working as needed
If you log off the client and logon as other user problem remains, if you reboot, problem solved.... after 20 minutes more.... it happens again.

I have researched a while in launchpad and bugs https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ ltsp/+bug/ 360355 and https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ ltsp/+bug/ 274128 is like in some way related to this one.
I discovered thath using local apps (see ubuntuLTSP page form localapps in ubuntu wiki, using totem, vlc, mplayer [this need redirect the sound out to OSS]) the sound work great, try that workaround, it's working for me.
The other bugs mention 1 tips to investigate: is user related (so config in user directory must be relevant?)
