I can confirm this. I've attached my syslog before the lock-up.

Interestingly, it has this line in the middle:

alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_avail() returned a value that is exceptionally large: 862552 bytes (4889 ms).

pulseaudio[2079]: [alsa-sink-CX20585 Analog] alsa-util.c: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.

I pkill -9'd the pulseaudio process, but it continued freezing again after the process respawned.
