Thinkpad T440s - sound fails after some supsends

[CannyDuck]

The sound does not work anymore, if I perform 2 or more suspends. I have to reboot the system to get the sound back.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Also happens to my T440s. Runing Linux Mint 16 with Xfce (Ubuntu 13.10).

Restarting pulseaudio helps.

Restart with:
killall pulseaudio
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
