Hi pali, thanks for these. I tried installing them as I have had no ringtone for quite some time, and it still doesn't work. I've just noticed however that hildon-status-menu is using a lot of CPU (30-65%!), as is pulseaudio (25%).

When I stop hildon-status-menu, pulseaudio drops to 0%.

The volume slider in my status menu is always 0 as well, (it goes up when I slide, but always resets back to 0).

...something's unhappy!

I've removed the two status plugins I was using - advanced clock and advanced power, but the removal made no difference. I have barely any desktop widgets anymore, so I doubt it's those. I also cannot use the media player now, so I think pulseaudio is screwed

I can however hear voice calls (abet not the ringing), which is a silver lining if ever there was one!

[edit]
Been doing a bit of debugging... here's the pastebin of a session where I stopped pulseaudio and started it manually from the shell.

Errors are:
Code:
E: voice-sidetone.c: Cannot open /sys/devices/platform/omap-mcbsp.2/st_enable
(yup, not there)

...and lots and lots of:
Code:
I: client.c: Created 57 "Native client (UNIX socket client)"
E: client-ext.c: client-ext.c: Can't obtain command line
I: protocol-native.c: Got credentials: uid=29999 gid=29999 success=1
E: protocol-native.c: protocol error, kicking client
I: client.c: Freed 57 "Native client (UNIX socket client)"
...weird thing is those ids translate as developer:users, right? Which is weird.

[edit 2]
Just downgraded the main pulseaudio package, and now my CPU usuage is back to normal.
Code:
dpkg -i pulseaudio_0.9.15-1maemo44\+0m5\+0cssu4_armel.deb
dpkg - warning: downgrading pulseaudio from 0.9.15-1maemo44+0m5+0cssu5 to 0.9.15-1maemo44+0m5+0cssu4.
