"Debian-+" is used by ps to tell you that the the user name was truncated and beginning with "Debian-": $ ps -O user,uid,sid -e | grep pulse | grep Debian 1137 Debian-+ 115 1136 S ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog 1149 Debian-+ 115 1136 S ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper The user is Debian-gdm which is used by Debian for GDM: $ cat /etc/passwd | grep 115 Debian-gdm:x:115:122:Gnome Display Manager:/var/lib/gdm3:/bin/false On my machine (testing), those two processes are the only remaining parts of a session of Debian-gdm. I'm not sure if this is a bug of pulseaudio, gdm, logind or something else. -- Gabriel
