Comment (by silfreed):

 Attached are two verbose log outputs from pulseaudio runs; one with and
 one without --no-cpu-limit.  There seems to be very little difference
 (other than I have to background and kill -9 pulseaudio when it dies from
 using the --no-cpu-limit switch).

 This time adding the switch didn't extend the time audio worked for me
 like it did the previous time; both times audio only lasted for 1-2
 minutes before cutting out.

 Currently I have a VLC process eating up 200% cpu (dual core) that *may*
 be affecting how quickly pulseaudio cuts out, but I have had lots of
 experience previously where pulseaudio cuts out quickly while under low
 CPU usage.

 The only other anecdotal evidence I can offer is that it seems that
 pulseaudio will run longer between cutting out if I let it dead for a
 period of time before I restart it.  I haven't performed *any* analysis to
 determine if that's actually the case or not.
