[ubuntu-uk] Sound died after last update (Edgy)

[Jim Kissel]

Sound was working w/t Flash/MP3/DVD/Audio CD  Even BBC Radio 3!  Mid-day 
yesterday I notices updates were available so after a brief look I 
updated my system.  Sound still worked, but at 15:01 we had a area power 
outage for about 45 seconds.  On re-boot no sound and other than a 
POP/Grunt from the base on boot I haven't been able to get any sounds.

Also System->Preferences->Devices Tab  any of the Test(s) hand.  The 
dialogue box appears but the animation bar doesn't move.

Any help/pointers appricated

thx
