[Ltsp-discuss] Pulseaudio crash on ubuntu karmic

[Comete <co...@da...>]

Hello,

I've just installed a LTSP 5.2 server on Ubuntu Karmic (32bits) for an 
elementary classroom with 14 HP T5145 thin clients. It seems to work 
quite well except for the sound part. Pulseaudio crashes when a user 
opens a session on these thin clients only.

I've tested with another model (VXL Itona) and with my laptop and it 
works well. So this problem seems to be linked to the audio chipset 
Realtek ACL262.

I have to finish the installation at the end of the week, so i must find 
a solution quickly.

Is there another way to set up sound for LTSP than using pulseaudio ? 
They need sound with there apps and with flash sites.
I've tested SOUND_DAEMON=esd and SOUND_DAEMON=nasd without success, no 
sound either.

Maybe someone could give me an url where to find backports for 
pulseaudio from "ubuntu lucid", i've been told that it was more "stable" 
in this future release ?

Thanks a lot for your help !
