Public bug reported: I use Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS >apt-cache policy pulseaudio pulseaudio: Installé : 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 Candidat : 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 Table de version : *** 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:4.0-0ubuntu11 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
When a user's home directory is mounted on a linux machine from another host using CIFS, pulseaudio will not start because pulseaudio cannot set the necessary permissions on the .config/pulse directory (CIFS doesn't allow permissions). I found someone that report the same bug under https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71649 It seams that redhat had implemented a workaround : https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2015-0419.html This is enoying because i do not have sound anymore since i have migrated all the /home/xxx directories to a nas. I expect to have sound even if my home directory is setup on a NAS through CIFS. ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1454841 Title: pulseaudio doesn't start if /home is a mounted CIFS Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I use Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS >apt-cache policy pulseaudio pulseaudio: Installé : 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 Candidat : 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 Table de version : *** 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:4.0-0ubuntu11 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages When a user's home directory is mounted on a linux machine from another host using CIFS, pulseaudio will not start because pulseaudio cannot set the necessary permissions on the .config/pulse directory (CIFS doesn't allow permissions).
