Title:
  [Realtek ALC861] pactl stat failed to find default card -- works fine
  with primary user account but stopped working with other user accounts

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Sound used to work for all user accounts, but no longer does.
  Recently installed Skype but do not know how closely that correlates
  with recent sound problem.  We no longer get the exit sound when
  logging off from the primary user account, either.  When looking at
  Sound Preferences, Hardware tab, nothing is listed; the only choice on
  the Output tab is Dummy Output.  The primary user account shows Analog
  Stereo on the Output tab.  I would like to fix this and defend the
  honor of Linux to my Windoze-using girlfriend, but I don't know
  enough.  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx
