I have a laptop where I've installed Ubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5. Sound works (Although I don't hear the splash screen sound when the desktop is loading).

As soon as I connect to a NoMachine session sound on the desktop breaks. and won't resume.

I plan on alerting NoMachine of this as well. I am tempted to run the pulse audio daemon. The LTSP project has used pulse audio within Ubuntu to great success with the thin client devices.

I was shocked that pulseaudio wasn't installed by default within ubuntu-desktop. It offers low latency, easy trans coding of varying sample rates and emulates OSS, ALSA, ESD. I guess the hangup must be power/load consumption.
