[LAU] a NEW question about pitch and speed

This morning when I turned on my computer it started playing
stuff on Pandora, but more slowly and at a lower pitch than
normal.  I wondered if this was just a problem with Pandora, so I
checked my own song files with Amarok.  Again, that music plays
more slowly and at a lower pitch than I'd expect.  1-2 days ago
this very same computer played at the right pitch and speed.

What could have gone wrong?  The built-in (only) sound card's
clock is now running more slowly?  Some system wide configuration
changed for the sound system, and it now slows things down?

If it's a configuration thing, then I didn't intend to do that,
nor did I even touch the configuration.  This computer runs
PulseAudio on Mandriva 2009.1.  The driver is snd_intel8x0.

Any ideas folks?

Thanks....
