Since from this, I assume you're using ALSA instead of Pulseaudio...
perhaps try this: 

    sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart

On newer versions of Ubuntu (though I don't remember if this was in 8.04
or not) the "/etc/init.d/" from above has been given an alias to make
using it faster/more convenient/less error-prone, so on a newer ubuntu
the command becomes:

    sudo service alsa-utils restart

Hope that helps!
