[pulseaudio-discuss] pulseaudio dies randomly when not in 2.0 output

[John Nunnington]

setting  /etc/pulse/default.pa with the lines below seems to fix this issue

.ifexists module-udev-detect.so
load-module module-udev-detect tsched_buffer_size=16384

realtime-scheduling was commented out and I belive the default is "no"

Many Many thanks Tanu
