Lost audio in later revisions

[xmltok]

I've lost audio somewhere between 17625 and 18272. I'm digging around trying to figure out where it happened, has anyone else noticed this?

I get a Failed to initialize audio device Check your audiosettings messages when I start a video. It goes away as soon as I roll back to 17625. The problem exists in the current SVN.

File a trac ticket with complete details please.

This includes full debug logs and any other pertinent information such as ALSA version, etc...
