Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
When music is playing and I switch to the console (ctrl + alt + F1) the music freezes until I return to gnome. This doesn't happen if I use alsa output. Moreover, in the console mplayer refuses to play audio unless I specify a different -ao argument. I think this is a bug.
1) I'm using Ubuntu 8.04, installed cleanly, without upgrading from Gutsy.
2) pulseaudio version: 0.9.10-1ubuntu1
3) I expect music to work even when GNOME is in the background
4) It freezes

i can confirm this. playback stops when changing the user (without loggin out the user that plays music), too.
this is a regression compared to how things worked with alsa
