Currently, I'd like to use PA as a replacement for esound... to basically send audio from different programs and from my audio capture card to my audio playback card (capture and playback are on the same card), taking advantage of mixing and syncing features of PA. Sending sound packets out to the network is interesting and I'd like to try that later. Here's the uncommented part of my /etc/pulse/default.pa file: ---- #!/usr/bin/pulseaudio -nF .ifexists /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-hal-detect.so load-module module-hal-detect .else load-module module-detect .endif add-autoload-sink output module-alsa-sink device=hw:0 sink_name=output add-autoload-source input module-alsa-source device=hw:0 source_name=input .ifexists /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-esound-protocol-unix.so load-module module-esound-protocol-unix .endif load-module module-volume-restore load-module module-rescue-streams .nofail ### Load something to the sample cache load-sample x11-bell /usr/share/sounds/gtk-events/activate.wav ### Load X11 bell module load-module module-x11-bell sample=x11-bell ### Publish connection data in the X11 root window load-module module-x11-publish load-module module-gconf ---- Tanu Kaskinen wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:20080120102854.GA18427@a9a.mannikko1.tontut.fi" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On Sun, Jan 20, 2008 at 03:07:44AM -0500, Richard Geddes wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hi, Just installed the PA packages on Ubuntu 7.10, with alsa drivers.

RTP stuff doesn't get loaded automatically, so I assume you do want to broadcast all your audio to the LAN. If that is correct, then the fix is probably quite simple. You probably have this line in your default.pa, if you followed the FAQ: load-module module-null-sink sink_name=rtp Instead of a null sink, you want to use an actual alsa sink. So do not load the null sink, but replace the 'source' argument of module-rtp-send with the name of the alsa sink's monitor source. If you need further assistance, please explain what kind of setup you want, and attach your /etc/pulse/default.pa. </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
