[pulseaudio-discuss] stumped on Slackware 14.1

Fri Apr 17 08:00:31 PDT 2015

I am unable to get pulseaudio to work on my Slackware 14.1 system.
It used to work and then for some unknown reason it started to fail.
I needed pulseaudio to get Skype to work, which requires it. I also
had to build a 32-bit binary distro to support Skype, but now I am
at a loss on how to re-activate it and I am clueless as to what broke
the working install. At the core, the problem seems to be related to
pulseaudio's failure to load some alsa modules. Any help would be 
greatly appreciated! /etc/pulse contents are attached.
I already tried to remove my ~/.config/pulse directory and recreate it,
to no avail.

Thanks!!!

Here are some diagnostics:

### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available
.ifexists module-udev-detect.so
load-module module-udev-detect
.else
### Use the static hardware detection module (for systems that lack udev/hal support)
load-module module-detect
.endif

### Load several protocols
.ifexists module-esound-protocol-unix.so
load-module module-esound-protocol-unix
.endif
load-module module-native-protocol-unix

### Automatically restore the volume of streams and devices
load-module module-stream-restore
load-module module-device-restore

### Automatically restore the default sink/source when changed by the user
### during runtime
### NOTE: This should be loaded as early as possible so that subsequent modules
### that look up the default sink/source get the right value
load-module module-default-device-restore

### Automatically move streams to the default sink if the sink they are
### connected to dies, similar for sources
load-module module-rescue-streams

### Make sure we always have a sink around, even if it is a null sink.
load-module module-always-sink

### Automatically suspend sinks/sources that become idle for too long
load-module module-suspend-on-idle

### Enable positioned event sounds
load-module module-position-event-sounds
