Huh.  Even more reproducible than I thought -- I'm thinking maybe the
ram thing was a canard since I only go to tty1 when my ram is running
low.  I tried a bunch of times with ample ram and was able to still
reproduce.

preconditions: you're in xorg/gnome on tty7 or whatever, audacious is
open, you're also logged in on tty1 with just bash  running

Step 2) press play on audacious
step 3) alt-ctrl-f1
step 4) alt-f2 (to change to different tty)
 
sound stops here (ie same as #3)

step 5) alt-f1 (to go back to terminal 1)

sound starts again.

step 6) go back to xorg alt-f7

sound stops here.


As for #4 I mean... the computer is running, I'm logged in xorg/gnome
but not at that particular tty.  I get silence...until I log in to the
tty (then the music starts)


funny series: 

if you, in tty1 log out of the current user ... the music stops.  if you log in, the music starts again.
if you log out... and then change to tty2, then change back to tty1 (ie you're still just faced with a login screen...) the music starts again.  And you can come back to xorg and it works....but if you go back to tty2 it stops.

Title:
  Audacious stops playing audio when outside of tty/term

Status in audacious package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  For the past few months, occasionally audacious stops playing audio.
  The program itself is responsive, but attempting to hit play results
  in no audio being played, and the timer for the particular track
  played to stay at 0:00.  Exiting audacious doesn't help, though
  killing pulseaudio/ and forcefully reloading alsa via "alsa force
  reload" does.  Today I noticed that if I change to the terminal via
  Alt-Ctrl-F1, the sound starts playing and remains playing so long as
  I'm away from Xorg, whereupon it stops playing when I return.
