[Bug 978604] Re: Banshee/Rhythmbox regularly stop playing audio when left on in the background
I can confirm this bug under Ubuntu 14.10 64-bit (Unity), Rhythumbox
3.0.3 .
Syslog shows just the one relevant entry that matches up with the time
of occurrence.
Nov 13 11:11:58 aubnerap06183l pulseaudio[2434]: [alsa-sink-92HD81B1X5
Analog] protocol-native.c: Failed to push data into queue
Pattern is always the same. Rhythmbox minimised playing a longish
playlist. Get a few tracks in, and it will play a fraction of a second
of a new track then halt. Clicking play/pause won't re-start playback,
but moving the slider back to the beginning of the track will. Often I
will go for a while without it happening, but once it does it seems to
then occur again on nearly every new track.
I've experienced the same under Ubuntu 14.04, and before that on 12.04
going back as far as my initial Ubuntu install in mid 2012. Behavior
hasn't altered at all over the last 2 years.

Title:
Banshee/Rhythmbox regularly stop playing audio when left on in the
background
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in “pulseaudio” source package in Precise:
Confirmed
Bug description:
If Banshee or Rhythmbox is left playing in the background they will
randomly stop playing in the latest builds of Ubuntu 12.04. Starting a
new piece of music usually fixes the problem. If left to its own
devices, the music will start playing again at some random time, at
some random position. This problem exists on both my desktop machine
(custom built Intel machine) and my laptop (Macbook 5,1). It has been
happening for several months now.
I became frustrated enough to load up pulseaudio in debugging mode.
The log shows that when the music player just finishes playing one
piece, and tries to start the next piece, you see something like this:

Basically what looks like the same thing over and over again with slightly different numbers.
