[pulseaudio-discuss] Unable to make pulseaudio work on a Slackware based distribution (Kongoni)

'Twas brillig, and Robert Gabriel at 09/12/10 14:19 did gyre and gimble:

OK, then thanks for confirming.

NB: Make sure you have not SSH'ed in to the machine with X11 forwarding
enabled from a Machine running PulseAudio. In this scenario PA will try
to play sound on your (e.g. the source) machine, not inside the VM.

So what I'd like to see (all commands to be run as a regular user, *not*
root, I'll prefix the command with sudo if it should be run by root).

 1. Full "pacmd list" output
 2. ck-list-sessions
 3. getfacl /dev/snd/*
 4. sudo lsof | grep /dev/snd
 5. PULSE_LOG=99 paplay -vvvvv /path/to/a/wav.wav

That'll probably be enough to get going on with :D I'll try and advise
as best I can once that debug info is available.

Take care

Col
