    Yes, that is essentially what I did, I kept shutting down things ,
    the last being pulseaudio which restored normal cpu activity. But
    after "killing" pulseaudio using the pid indicated in top I had no
    way to restart it. "pulseaudio -D" did not restart so I tried what
    it suggested [being unaware of any reason not to do so].

    Yes the "Qtel" application is probably the culprit, fortunately it's not an essential thing but I would have liked it to work.
