Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
I've had several applications crash or hang recently, and there is usually unusual activity related to pulseautio either in top or in the log files when it happens. Example from this morning, when testing XBMC, it hung completely and gave no error messages in its application log, but the system messages show:

I'm not sure if PulseAudio IS the culprit, but those messages indicate to me that something is wrong?
Thank you very much for your help in resolving this matter.
