Big problem for me also. Xubuntu 14.04, 64bit, fresh install giving no
sound. "pulseaudio server connection failure connection refused" hence
no Skype.

My previous installation of the same system on the same hardware gave no
problems at all. If no one has a fix I'll try another install, failing
that, another OS.

Title:
  Can't connect to PulseAudio server

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  
  1) Install  Ubuntustudio 64 bit  14.04  Beta 1 (Alpha)  Feb 24
  2) reboot etc

  result:  Sound system works properly

  3) Install all the latest updates as of Mar 14,  3.13.0-17-lowlatency kernel
  4) reboot etc

  result:  Sound System no longer works
  anything that tries to connect to the PulseAudio server, including the Volume Contol, hangs...

  Expected:  PulseAudio should still work after the update

  Note: JACK is still usable.
