I have it installed and I used these two commands to make it use pulseaudio by default: $ gconftool-2 -t string --set /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/audiosink pulsesink $ gconftool-2 -t string --set /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/audiosrc pulsesrc But that didn't work at all. In gnome I remember using a GUI called gstreamer-properties to adjust this sort of thing, but from what I found online, these two commands should have done the same thing.

I might give this a try later when I have a bit more time. Shouldn't xfce4-volumed (for purposes of Debian wheezy release) be uninstallable if pulseaudio and pavucontrol are to be used? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
