Bug description:
  *****************
  SRU Justification
  *****************

  Justification: This is a medium-to-high impact bug as PulseAudio crashes, causing non-working playback and recording. It is especially troublesome for machines with low CPU power (e g Intel Atom based machines). 
  Regression risk: Low - the patches are both in Natty and upstream since 2-3 months back and no regressions have been reported. 
  Howto: please apply the maverisk-sru.debdiff patch to gst-plugins-good-0.10.
  Test: on a troublesome machine - pulseaudio won't crash anymore after this patch has been applied. To verify that PulseAudio is crashing for the same reason as this patch fixes, take a PulseAudio verbose log (according to http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log ) - in this crashing scenario, the log is filled with extreme amounts of "Processing Rewind" messages. 

  *****************

  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  With the recent kernel and pa upgrades in Maverick I am seeing very
  frequent crashes in Totem trying to play back audio as well as video.

  The error messages in question always arrive together and are as follows:
  pa_stream_cork() failed: Connection terminated
  pa_stream_writable_size(): Connection failed

  The machine in question is an Asus EeePC 1002HA and the problem
  persists on both the USB attached speakers and the builtin HDA device.
