[pulseaudio-discuss] pulseaudio[2127]: ratelimit.c: 128 events suppressed

[Bill Cox]

In Ubuntu Lucid, as well as Vinux, we get a ton of syslog messages
like the one in the subject line.  At least one power-user thinks this
is related to kernel panics, and always removes PulseAudio because of
this error.  Here is the bug report at launchpad.net:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/479296

I see that it effects both karmic and lucid releases, and that the
last log message is less than a week old, and that there is little
progress on it so far.  It may be related to proprietary drivers.
Does anyone here know what this error message means, and what may be
wrong that causes it?

Thanks,
Bill
