Hey.

I have the following problem :
Yesterday I shut down my computer and when I turned it back on, the sound simply stopped working ! The sound controll applet just disappeared from the panel and I can't even start Sys. -> pref. -> sound (it says its waiting for the sound system to respond).

The sound works in flash.

It suddenly started to work yesterday, but today I needed to restart the desktop and now it's not working again.

I've tried reinstalling pulse audio, tried "killall pulseaudio", tried deleting pulseaudio files from home dir. Nothing worked. :(

What do I do ?

Now VLC plays music and video normally. This makes absolutely no fcking sense to me...
