I think I have the same problem. I'm running a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 64bits on a HP Pavilion DV6338se. If I start, for example, Amarok and after Skype, Skype says it is unable to use the sound device:

"ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave"

If I run "killall pulseaudio", Skype starts working.

I've attached the lspci -vvnn and dmesg in case this can be helpful. Please let me know if I can help providing more information or testing.
