The '-i' option to sudo replaces the environment of the subprocess with a new environment; or in other words you are throwing away all the environment variables and creating a new set. My guess is that the subprocess does not get the environment variables needed for audio due to this. Try the sudo command without '-i'. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
