Comment 29 for bug 76876

Im Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon on an HP dv1717tu

My output differs slightly from that of above, however as pulseaudio replaces ESD, in effect it is the same.

when i run:

ryan@RLaptop:~/PH$ sudo lsof |grep /dev/snd/
pulseaudi 5956 ryan mem CHR 116,6 14311 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c
pulseaudi 5956 ryan mem CHR 116,5 14304 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p
pulseaudi 5956 ryan 11u CHR 116,7 14348 /dev/snd/controlC0
pulseaudi 5956 ryan 12u CHR 116,5 14304 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p
pulseaudi 5956 ryan 13u CHR 116,7 14348 /dev/snd/controlC0
pulseaudi 5956 ryan 14u CHR 116,6 14311 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c
mixer_app 12477 ryan 20u CHR 116,7 14348 /dev/snd/controlC0

then

ryan@RLaptop:~/PH$ sudo kill -9 5956

sound is restored.
