prakash@localhost:~$ epiphany-browser 
epiphany-browser: pcm_params.c:2351: sndrv_pcm_hw_params: Assertion `err >= 0' failed.

So, a beta version of a closed source software crashes. And you file a bug against PA? Uh. I am sorry, but closed source is ... uhh ... closed! I cannot do much about this.
