Comment 0 for bug 1760729

Pulseaudio crashed randomly while watching a YouTube video in fullscreen. When crashing the last 1 second or so of audio looped for a few seconds, then cut out. I am using PulseEffects as well, which crashed around the same time. Whether that was the cause or a result of the PulseAudio crash is unclear.

I am using Bionic because the video drivers for my AMD Raven Ridge iGPU are not supported by earlier versions.
