Some further info:
I thought I'd test out the Sound recorder program.
Almost immediately, I got these two error messages:
Disconnected: Entity killed
pa_stream_cork() failed: Entity killed
then, multiple messages:
I counted 50 of them, then decided to force quit, as it seemed like they'd go on forever.
I reloaded the sound driver using the command:
sudo alsa force-reload
and tried Sound recorder again. Exactly the same thing happened.
