Both PA 9.14 and 9.15~test2 are giving lots of jaunty users problems.
I've informed both Luke and upstream on this.
From a few tests I run, sound is being sent to the devices, but doesnt reach the buffer.
Killing[1] PA and restarting helps most yours working around the problem, but not all.
In my case I never get sound back after hibernate/resume, so I have to kill PA and just use ALSA.

This looks similar the race condition we had around alpha3, and Luke said he was going to test that scenario.
I hope this gets fixed soon, 'cause the most frequent question on #ubuntu+1 is "Is PA working?"
