I had some problems with shutdown/restarting Ubuntu 13.04. It used to hang in a black screen with some codes about speech dispatcher. I searched the web and found a solution:
sudo nano /etc/default/speech-dispatcher
Inside the file I changed the RUN property to yes, so the file started looking like this:
# Defaults for the speech-dispatcher initscript, from speech-dispatcher
# Set to yes to start system wide Speech Dispatcher
RUN=yes
I did so, the problem was solved but it disabled my internal speaker and mic. It looks like I have to choose between proper shutdowns and working mic/speaker.
Is there any solution to have them both working?
