Comment(by robert42539):

 Well, after attempting to play audio with ALSA only, the audio crashed
 again... It took it much longer and the audio had less problems than would
 with pulseaudio, but when it did crash both online flash video (google
 chrome/flash player 10 amd64) and an mp3 file (vlc with debug level 2)
 totally stopped working. Google Chrome could make sounds while adding new
 tabs, even while vlc was still complaining:
 ...first part shown only once...
 alsa error: cannot recover from buffer underrun
 alsa error: ALSA error: Input/output error
 main warning: audio drift is too big (692999), dropping buffer
 ...second part repeats over and over...
 main debug: audio output is starving (460851), playing silence
 alsa error: cannot write: Input/output error
 main debug: audio output is starving (39002), playing silence
 alsa error: cannot write: Input/output error
 ...kept repeating until stop button pressed...

 So, looks like ALSA bug, but still need to double check flash isn't
 sending audio to pulseaudio...
