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

[Robert Gabriel]

Wait, I forgot to mention that Im using pulseaudio only when X/KDE
starts with a normal user.
I don't use the daemon at system start-up.
Im not sure if this makes any differences, just making sure you know.
