This problem also exists when the onboard sound (ALi Corporation M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 20)) is disabled in the BIOS and deleting ~/.pulse ~/.asound* and /etc/asound.conf. This might have been a problem from before upgrading to Jaunty, but I did not use pavucontrol before the upgrade.
I would have included the output from "pulseaudio -vv" but it was too long and scrolled out of the gnome-terminal history buffer. If there is a way to dump "pulseaudio -vv" in a txt file and would be helpful, please let me know. I am including
/var/log/syslog
/var/log/user.log
/etc/pulse/
/etc/pulse/
Are there any other files which might be helpful?
