Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt-xapian-index

This was a fresh installation of the Beta 2 from and ISO that I made myself from the Ubuntu Beta 2 Release page. I just updated and installed everything today.. and this happens as soon as I boot the system each time. Usually around the time I try to first run Firefox 4 maybe? Not too sure. Firefox 4 and Adobe Flash are extremely unstable. I get sound distortion and choppy playback. I didn't have these problem with 10.10. Just that I should let you know.
