             Bug #: 48728
           Summary: starts systemwide and sessionwide Pulseaudio daemons
                    in system wide mode
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: PulseAudio
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: daemon
        AssignedTo: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

I have running Pulseaudio system wide:

merkaba:~> grep -B1 SYSTEM /etc/default/pulseaudio
# Geht nur richtig mit exit 0 am Anfang von /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-{kde,x11}
PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=1


Still I get system wide and session wide Pulseaudio daemons:

martin at merkaba:~> ps aux | grep pulse | grep -v grep
pulse     1073  0.0  0.0 230828  3700 ?        S<l  Apr14   0:00
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --system --daemonize --high-priority --log-target=syslog
--disallow-module-loading=0
martin    2330  0.0  0.0 235048  5616 ?        Sl   Apr14   0:42
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start


I know I put "exit 0" at that of /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-{kde,x11}, but on
update of Pulseaudio this is lost. I might be able to add a dpkg diversion on
it. but I do think I shouldn´t have to be doing this.


Why do I use system-wide mode although it is not recommended? I have two user
sessions. One my private, one my work one. The music is on the private one. And
I like to hear music with ear phones at work at times. The pulseaudio on my
private session stops playing when I switch to the work session.


I use Debian Sid with:
