Google search: waiting for sound system to respond
e.g.
Solution
Go to System->Preferences -> Startup Applications
Make sure you’re in the tab ‘Startup programs’
-> Click on ‘Add’
Name: Pulseaudio daemon
Command:/usr/bin/pulseaudio
Comment: Start the sound daemon

Now logout, then login again

For alacarte:
System-Preferences-Main Menu

then expand Preferences
scroll down to bottom to see
...
Sound
Startup Applications
...

Check off Sound
right-click on Sound to see Properties, etc
