Binary package hint: pulseaudio
I think this is related to Pulse as sound is not present every time and pulse can't see my sound card. Sometimes when I shut down my computer and start it again later lucid boots with no sound and no volume indicator applet in the panel and sound devices detected under sound preferences. In addition to this the shutdown applet is grayed out and I cannot shutdown or restart the computer. I am still able to logout, but shutdown and restart do not respond on the login dialog either. The only way to restart or shut down is via the command line and only with root access enabled. When I do $sudo su then $reboot it restarts normally with everything working fine, but will occasionally freeze the system completely including the system clock with the fans spinning up high and a hard reset with the power button as the only option to restart the system. I have tried all of the fixes from the ubuntu forums from :

My problem sounds different than all of these because 1.) I do not have Open Office running at all during start-up. 2.) It does not kick me back to login. 3.) No one on any of these threads has reported sound problems. 4.) ACPI work around changes nothing. 5.) They report icon for shutdown gone from panel and can restore it, mine is present and grayed out. 6.) Mine happens at random after a full shutdown and ALWAYS features the traits listed above.
