    I like to leave my PC running.

    About every two days the audio goes out until I reboot the PC.

    Given that long length of time I'm thinking it would be hard to debug
    this issue.

    I would have to wait 2 days to report back whether or not something worked.

    I am also wondering if whatever problem it is that only every two days
    if I would have the power to fix it without hacking a kernel ( I can't ).

    If it were worthwhile to debug this issue, what sort of information
    would I gather and when?

    I've been running Mint for years and I haven't had this problem with a
    vanilla install.
    Sometimes the perms on the audio device get screwed.

    Make sure pulse user is in group 'audio'

    from /etc/group
