Description
Created attachment 72663 pulseaudio extracted from /var/log/messages for the time that pulseaudio ran with log-level=4
About once a day pulseaudio crashes with that message. The machine is usually idle when this happens except for skype.
$ rpm -qa | grep -i pulse wine-pulseaudio-1.5.13-1.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-gconf-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-1.1-9.fc17.i686 wine-pulseaudio-1.5.13-1.fc17.i686 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.26-1.fc17.x86_64 kde-settings-pulseaudio-4.8-19.fc17.noarch gvncpulse-0.5.1-4.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-glib2-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-x11-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-zeroconf-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 pulseaudio-utils-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64
Steps to Reproduce: Install skype leave it running use a USB headset (Logitch G35) as well as speakers on-board sound run xfce4-mixer and pavucontrol, leave them running
