Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.21-3
Severity: important

the pulsedeamon always crashes when i want to open the volume control
via the Gnome applet, and the syslog shows the following output, stating
that it has something to do with the alsa driver. But alsa and oss based
audio software works ok:
