This is most likely a problem with Flash -- which happens to be horrendously broken (surprise, surprise!), and opens as many PCM devices as it can until it gets EBUSY, which are quite a bit on PA. After having opened them it is itself overloaded and PA doesn't accept any further connections, until you terminate Firefox/Flash and it gives up all those streams again. Please install "libflashsupport" which adds native PA support to Flash. Closing this bug now as NOTABUG. If the problem shouldn't be fixed by doing this, feel free to reopen. Thanks that fixed it. I wish we had caught this before Fedora 8 shipped. Uh? Actually we *did* know about this issue before F8. Don't forget: the bug is in Flash, not in PA. libflashsupport is included in F8, originally I even had it as a part of pulseaudio-libs to make things "just work". However, some multilib guys didn't like that, so I had to split it off. |
