Comment 3 for bug 200644

I can confirm this; but in my case it happens when, after a time using the computer with Ubuntu Hardy (2.6.24-17-generic), the soundcard stops running misteriously, and then all the players refuse to reproduce everything, stoping video after the first second; I tested gmplayer too. If I use avidemux I get the message "there is a problem with audio" but the video continues.

Even the USB stops working as usual, doesn't detect nothing. I will fill a bug with the audio stops working in my case, it forces me to reboot twice a week.
