dont "believe" anything.. are you using pulse? pulse ships with
ubuntustudio.. also, JACK ships. if you start an audio application that
requires JACK, and automatically tries to start JACK, this can cause issues
with your "normal" audio. please reboot, and dont start *anything* other
than just vlc, and test audio/video.. also, try as another user to, as i
stated a few times, remove your users config from the equation..
