apparmor:/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/gnome should probably be changed
to include pulseaudio things, as any time a desktop app tries to make a
beep or anything, pulseaudio is restarted automatically, if it happens
to be evince then it will fail to start and it's hard to see what is
wrong

Title:
  profiles for evince and possibly other programs prevent pulseaudio
  autospawn

Status in AppArmor Linux application security framework:
  New

Bug description:
  [35537.458500] type=1400 audit(1285747964.348:28): apparmor="DENIED"
  operation="exec" parent=2469 profile="/usr/bin/evince"
  name="/usr/bin/pulseaudio" pid=4724 comm="threaded-ml"
  requested_mask="x" denied_mask="x" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

  if pulseaudio isn't running (hey, it can happen!) apparmor can
  interfere with its normal autostart mechanism in any given app

  this has actually been causing some ugly user facing problems on
  maverick (10.10) for me
