eh ehhh... as I said, that's just ridiculous...
when I wrote this some time ago someone did even blame my post as flame and so...
Now that a new release is out I can't but confirm my original impression: this bug is frankly ridiculous because ridiculous is having it even in the new release after six months of bug report, and in a LTS release one too!!! Does it mean we can hope to benefit from such a bug for at least the next 3 years of support? Very good, wow...
In this post https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/445849/comments/121
I suggested getting completely rid of PulseAudio.
Ok, you had to manage with some inconvenient because of the thight integration devs just thought to put beetween PA and Gnome, but at least you would been able to use your 5.1 system and, as a plus, you would had seen your pc run way more smoothly than before.
Now I suggest something really better from all point of view. Skip Ubuntu Lucid completely. Just switch to Kubuntu Lucid Lynx.
Kubuntu use KDE that is a more evolute DM than Gnome and, even more important, it DOES NOT USE pulseaudio! Simply and clean. Give it a try and definetely forgot pulseaudio and its bugs.
