          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 83280
                CC: lennart at poettering.net
          Assignee: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: Double-starting daemon with --start -v issues
                    non-useful  report
        QA Contact: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: hortplumber at gmail.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: daemon
           Product: PulseAudio

If a user does "pulseaudio --start -v" but a daemon already running, the
message "daemon startup successul" is issued. Imo, this is misleading because
the command actually did nothing: Since a daemon was found to already be
running, no action was taken. A message like "daemon already running" would be
more informative, and also more consistent with messages issued by other
daemons in similar situation.
