Comment(by AHelper):

 Here is a typical output of pulseaudio:

 was actually nothing to write!

 'snd_emu10k1x'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.

 I ran VLC to try and play an ogg but all I heard was a ticking sound.
 I quit it right away.
 The sound kept playing.
 Pavucontrol locked up.
 Pulseaudio crashed.
 pavucontrol had to be force-quit.

 Any ideas (or experiments), please leave a comment for me to try.
