Comment:

 This just means that you have a setup issue and some other application is
 accessing your devices directly, bypassing pulse. As this other app is
 using your device, pulse cannot access it at the same time.

 You can find out what process is accessing your sound hardware by doing:
 {{{fuser /dev/snd/*}}}

 This will list the process ids of the applications in question. You can
 find out what app this really is by doing {{{ps up <pid from previous
 command>}}}.

 Hope this helps identify your setup problem. Feel free to reopen this bug
 if you find that this turns out to be a bug in pulseaudio.
