Confirming. The only trace of failure I found, was in the /var/log/messages and /var/log/user.log:
Dec 4 23:01:43 xxx pulseaudio[29241]: protocol-native.c: Failed to push data into queue

Killing pulseaudio and starting it over helps. But restarting all sound applications after that is really annoying.
