So, the attachment looks mostly OK, things start up sink is stated etc.
all is looking well...

Can you do some other tests?

1. Can you make sure no pulseaudio processes are running (keep killing
them until they die!), then run: "pulseaudio --start" This should start
PA in the background and give you control back to your shell. From what
we've seen so far, it might be that it "sticks" and does not give you
your shell back.

2. If it does give you control back, can you repreat the test Tanu
originally suggested with the PULSE_LOG=99 pactl info to see if it works
now?

3. Can you outline any "special" properties your homedir might have?
e.g. is it a "strange" filesystem, mounted over NFS or anything else of
that ilk?

Cheers

Col
