pulseaudio installed but not working
As no system audio running, no volume level icon.
No audio at all, previously, after installing skype it made a highest volume noise which force me to shutdown the laptop and after that I could continue using the computer after mute it.
Next boot I have no sound system running, I did nothing related to configure sound but reinstalling gstream1.0 (sudo apt-get install --reinstall gstream1.0)
