Public bug reported: Loading the pulseaudio module 'module-alsa-sink' with the "control" argument causes pulseaudio to segfault on my system.
In /etc/pulse/default.pa find this line: #load-module module-alsa-sink and change it to this: load-module module-alsa-sink control=Master then restart pulseaudio by running these commands: pulseaudio -k pulseaudio --start Notice that it prints this into the terminal. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed. Try starting pulseaudio itself in the terminal, and you see what's happening: W: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting.
