Public bug reported: [Impact]
Ubiquity and Calamares used to have a facility to make the first configured user part of the `audio` group by default. Unfortunately, with `ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap`, we lost this ability in Ubuntu Studio and making sure that the users had the proper configuration (memory limits for the audio group) was an oversight. Fortunately, the ubuntustudio-installer application, and its included ubuntustudio-audio-config application, have the facility to do that, although the script needed a little bit of work and the entire package was missing a runtime dependency on `polkitd-pkla` to make the whole system work as expected. [Test Case] * Run Ardour * Ardour will complain about limited memory (see screenshot attached) Expected: No complaints from Ardour [What could go wrong] The only thing I expect could go wrong is that the systemd user service fails to launch. The backup for this is to run ubuntustudio-audio-config from the launcher, which would run everything as expected (setting the memory limits, adding the user to the `audio` group, and rebooting the system). ** Affects: ubuntustudio-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer) Status: In Progress ** Attachment added: "Screenshot_20240426_163412.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2063899/+attachment/5771168/+files/Screenshot_20240426_163412.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2063899 Title: Dummy audio device running on new installs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-installer/+bug/2063899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
