Just curious to hear what happened with this. Do you still have
access to this system, and if so, what kernel do you use? Does a
3.5.y kernel from experimental reproduce the same sound trouble? Does
a 2.6.32.y kernel from squeeze (it should work fine on a wheezy/sid
system) avoid it? Any other new observations?

Sincerely,
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,
Mysterious as it sounds, in one of the updates sound came back but in
a strange manner. Now I can run a song, movie and can hear sound as
well (Yay!) but the moment I pause the song/movie and then play again
the music or/and sound is gone. I have no idea what causes that.

The kernel I'm using is

$ uname -a
Linux deb-home 3.2.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 23 02:45:17 UTC 2012
x86_64 GNU/Linux

This is on Debian testing/wheezy machine with all updates.

Neat. What media player do you use? (Please forgive my
forgetfulness.)

Thanks,
Jonathan

vlc for audio + video, rhythmbox for purely audio although rhythmbox
has now some more issues but that would be a different bug.

In vlc I have seen the bug manifest all the times whenever I have
paused the movie/moving picture and then played again, just no audio.

Ok, thanks. Can you reproduce this with aplay from alsa-utils (pausing
by suspending with ^Z, resuming with "fg")? Does mplayer have the same
problem (press space to pause)?

I've experienced pause/resume flakiness in vlc before, so hopefully we
can find a way to reproduce this with another media player.

with aplay I was not able to suspend it with CTL+Z, it seems that
kills but then I'm using guake. So either it is an issue with guake or
an issue with aplay or both, dunno but that's something for another
day.

Aha, it's a pause/resume flakiness in vlc. I tried it with a bunch of
media players and they played, paused and replayed videos without an
issue so definitely can be nailed down to vlc.

So all in all, I guess we can treat this bug as closed.
