It should be /var/run/pulse/native. This is the socket that pulseaudio creates when you run it in system wide daemon mode. (ie. when you start it using the init script) >   - PULSE_SERVER / PULSE_BINARY variables      (Don't know what their >   talking about) You force pulseaudio clients to connect to any pulseaudio daemon you want by setting the PULSE_SERVER environment variable. For example: $ export PULSE_SERVER=my-other-machine.local to connect to a pulseaudio daemon running on the host my-other-machine.local. Or: $ export PULSE_SERVER=unix:/var/run/pulse/native to connect to a pulseaudio daemon running in system wide mode on the local machine. See <a href="http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/ServerStrings">http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/ServerStrings</a> for the full details.

(Before Lenny) PulseAudio usually works fine "out of the box" on Lenny. Maybe your best bet is to purge all the pulse packages and reinstall. -- CJ van den Berg mailto:<a href="mailto:cj@vdbonline.com">cj@vdbonline.com</a>   <a href="mailto:xmpp:cj@vdbonline.com">xmpp:cj@vdbonline.com</a> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGX+G8l3pZXfh0CHIRAoEgAKCCScGo9rVr6ze5Ey49T7iWdeTnUwCfdW2W dERWxJNAgSeMGr4qUZFPZYU= =PzyQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list <a href="mailto:pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de">pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de </a> <a href="https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss">https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss</a></blockquote><div> Well, I tried completely purging and reinstalling every package with the name pulse in it instead of just the main pulseaudio package and  sure enough it worked, all the problems have magically disappeared. Its Crazy! It works perfect again! Hell if I know what was wrong. </div> </div>
