I am using Ubuntu Jaunty, and this bug still appears for me. I believe I have the pulse audio package version 1:0.9.14-0ubuntu20. I have an integrated audio card on my motherboard (using a Realtek chip) and a PCI Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 5.1 sound card. When I use pvucontrol to send the audio stream to my integrated audio device, everything seems to work fine; however, when I send the audio to my Audigy sound card, Pulse Audio crashes every 5 - 20 minutes with the message:

Soft CPU time limit exhausted, terminating.

I have

default-sample-channels = 6

in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf. I'm using this computer as a media centre PC and this bug renders my surround sound system almost useless :-( I've attached the output of running pulseaudio -vvv.
