I am sorry for the ugly wrapped lines. Thunderbird did that just before
sending. For that, I am trying to send it again with mail.wrap_long_lines
disabled in thunderbird.

Though I cannot state for sure that this is what occurs when the system
totally crashes, it seems likely to me (but then again I have no clue
why it recovered from that this time).

I am using Debian 7, which has all updates installed installed and I
have a Thinkpad T400, using the amd64-Version of Debian 7.

I am not sure which of these packages are responsible, so I post
everything which is somehow related to alsa or pulseaudio.

And: usually I play the music with Iceweasel,

as mp4-file with the html5-video-tag, but the same occurs when it's
played with flash-player
