Hi Samuel, > Have you read the faq? > https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.html > notably about audio.
Thanks, I went and read the audio entry. Confirmed: faq/audio.html answers "Is audio supported?" with "This is pending work" pointing at rumpsound (last updated 2026-02-06). Packaging pulseaudio in the live image does not move that needle on its own; without a backend below it, pulseaudio just starts a null sink and nothing else happens. Withdrawing the live-image ask. I will reopen this thread once a backend (rumpsound, Damien Zammit's jack1-hurd PoC on the bug-hurd RFC thread, or anything else that surfaces) is far enough along that bundling the userland is actually load-bearing.
