    Same here. Thousands of pulseaudio errors at a rate of about 30 a second. Need some help here.

    Here is an example of syslog:

    You can safely delete all those log messages in /var/log/user.log, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/messages.

    PulseAudio is a huge resource hog. Many people, including me, happily live without it. Unless you really need PulseAudio for some specific reason, consider removing it and just using alsa:
