Description of problem: I occasionally see an infinite list of duplicate entries of ALSA applications in the Sound Preference -> Applications tab. This is pretty much always associated with pulseaudio sound playback stopping to work until pulseaudio is killed and restarted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pulseaudio-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.21-2.fc12.x86_64 How reproducible: Happens once in a while when multiple applications play sound simultaneously. E.g. firefox playing some Youtube + pidgin audio event notification, or Thunderbird email notification + pidgin event, ... Steps to Reproduce: 1. Mind your business on the computer 2. See that sound stops working 3. Look at Sound Preference -> Applications tab 4. See that there are hundreds of duplicate entries of the same app Actual results: - Hundreds of duplicate entries of the same app in the sound preferences - Sounds usually stops working (or is about to) Expected results: - One entry per app - Sound keeps working Additional info: This problem was also reported in bug 559032, which got closed as WORKSFORME.
Please provide the output of "pacmd ls" when this happens.
I see this happen as well when CPU goes over 100%: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=565883

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
