Bug description:
  # Issue

  * Patch to alsa-plugins causes regression in java applet (webex)

  ## Environment

  Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS x86
  sun-java6-plugin-6.24-1build0.10.04.1
  linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.32-32-generic
  libasound2-plugins-1.0.22-0ubuntu6
  pulseaudio 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu14

  Dell Latitude 2120

  ## Resolution

  * (workaround) Disable pulseaudio and use alsa directly
  or
  * Revert patch debian/patches/lp464008lp503174.patch which ignores underruns

  ## Diagnostic Steps

  1. Connect to a webex meeting
  2. Speak to a user, confirm mic and audio is working correctly
  3. Shout loudly/tap microphone and watch java app adjust mic volume
  4. Observe that with headphones you can no longer hear the other user
  5. Use package that reverts patch from http://people.canonical.com/~trellis/alsa/libasound2-plugins_1.0.22-0ubuntu6~tellis01_i386.deb
  6. Repeat and notice all works well

  ## Other information

  Ran pulseaudio debug logs for both good and bad packages and attaching to bug. Note you can see when the java plugin changes
  the volume and after this point it stops putting audio through headphones/speakers.
