Hi, My pulseaudio also experienced breakage after my last full-upgrade of squeeze. This is the version you mention.
In my case, system sounds would still work... but this being KDE3.5, my system sounds don't use pulseaudio. I had no sound in kaffeine or totem. MPlayer did have sound. I found a fix which works for me, other than downgrading. Have you tried running pulseaudio as root or as the pulse user? You can achieve this easily by editing /etc/default/pulseaudio to start the daemon at boot as the pulse user. NOTE: you can probably test this by killing the pulseaudio instances that are run by your user and launch it again as root or pulse. However, for some reason, it sometimes fails to get access to the sound card, with or without issuing an error message at the shell. So, to make sure, I'd rather edit /etc/default/pulseaudio and reboot. Hope this helps. Debian, this is my third attempt at getting this reply accross to your bug system. Is there a problem or something? I was thinking, maybe I get blocked as spam, but then I receive no notification. _______________________________________________ Pkg-pulseaudio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-pulseaudio-devel
