[ubuntu-uk] 10.04 lost sound

[ronnie at ronnietucker.co.uk]

I sometimes get get no sound in Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE) after an  
update. I normally delete the .pulse folder, log out then in and all's  
good.

Maybe rename your .pulse folder (if there is one) to see if it works?  
If not, rename it back.

Good luck!
