Why are my videos playing speeded up with no audio, but work fine if I log in as a guest?

Since the start of this week I have been experiencing a glitch in the multimedia on my Samsung R518 laptop. I have 2 problems:
- Videos in every player are speeded up around 2 or 4 times (including youtube.com (both HTML5 and flash variants), any other video on the web and videos on my laptop played by Totem Media Player), exception is VLC player, but 2nd problem does concern even that.
- There is no sound - simple as that (with or without headphones plugged in).
These all problems are now, and has not seen before, I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 after it was possible, and from start I didn't have anything from this - it just started in this week. I haven't even putted new software in. I have more or less solved the question (kind of) - I just logged in as a guest - and it all works, but when I make a new user - it does not.
Please help me. Some stats below:
