Description of problem:
Received warning that my disk was full (unpartitioned disk inside a KVM virtual machine). Noticed that /var was 2.2G (out of 8G disk). Looked further and saw that /var/log/messages was 2.2G. Tailed it and saw these messages being spammed at high speed over and over:

Dec 3 15:16:02 foo pulseaudio[1465]: socket-server.c: accept(): Too many open files
Dec 3 15:16:02 foo pulseaudio[1465]: socket-server.c: accept(): Too many open files
Dec 3 15:16:02 foo pulseaudio[1465]: socket-server.c: accept(): Too many open files
Dec 3 15:16:02 foo pulseaudio[1465]: socket-server.c: accept(): Too many open files
Dec 3 15:16:02 foo pulseaudio[1465]: socket-server.c: accept(): Too many open files

I had to kill the pulseaudio process and delete other files just to be able to try to compress messages.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

pulseaudio-0.9.21-1.fc12.x86_64

How reproducible:

Have not yet tried.

Additional info:

When the messages file finishes compressing, I'll reboot the VM and see if the problem occurs. This VM was just created yesterday.
