I'm running a buildbot that runs all the wine tests several times an hour. All was well until I upgraded from ubuntu 10.04 to 11.10... then I started to see occasional errors like ALSA lib pcm_pulse.c:746:(pulse_prepare) PulseAudio: Unable to create stream: Connection terminated or ALSA lib pulse.c:229:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection terminated This blows my buildbot out of the water; nobody likes to be told that their patch to add a comment to notepad.c has broken wine's audio support. I've filed bugs for this at winehq.org and ubuntu, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28653 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874770 but nobody has come up with any suggestions yet. I downloaded the pulseaudio sources and built src/test/connect-stress.c, and am running it in a loop, but since it outputs "Connection terminated" in normal operation, it's kind of hard to tell whether it's detecting the problem or not :-) This is the main source of spurious failures in my buildbot. Any ideas what could be causing the increased error rate, or how I might go about debugging it? FWIW, this is on an i7. Thanks, Dan
