As bug 4411 mentions, PulseAudio is out. We should consider an upgrade; perhaps that will solve bug 4411 and other problems.
4.0 is out now: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/4.0/
Have a look at updating these upstream bug entries at the same time: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55280 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55607 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62865
Updated in r27650. Still need to do some follow-up commits. Turns out the newer PulseAudio needs newer autotools though, so first I have to upgrade cenbuild.
Found a minor bug that I've submitted upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66774
Gotten rid of the ALSA use case manager requirement in r27654. Reported upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66777
Upgrade should be done now.
Doesn't build on Windows. Fix in r27667 and submitted upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66846
Upstream wanted improvements to the auto patch. Fixed in r27686.
The upgraded caused a regression in the form of bug 4802.

I've confirmed that it is indeed a regression from 4.1.0 on Henrik's laptop.
Problem occurs even without loading module-waveout, so it has nothing to do with the sound card. It also happens using a simple telnet against the port, so it is something very fundamental that goes wrong.
Urgh. A whole bunch of assorted bugs had to be fixed as part of this: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69522 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69526 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69708 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69710 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69711 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69712
All committed to our repo as well.
I've tested sound from: - CentOS 6 - Windows XP 64-bit - Windows 7 Sound works perfectly as far as I can tell.
Commit r27931 does some changes to tlclient that causes it to crash early in the login process, when MS App Verifier is active, with the "Handle" test. See bug 4723. This is a regression compared to 4.1.0. The actual commit does not reference any bug number, so I'm picking my best guess.
Created attachment 497 [details] Crash dump r27931
Created attachment 498 [details] Crash dump trunk
Bug 4815 was the relevant for that commit. Reopening that one instead.
