'killall -KILL pulseaudio'. At one time I removed all its config files and let it regenerate them when next used, but the issue remains.I've stopped using pulseaudio. ALSA seems to be able to meet all of my needs. I also noticed the LXDE desktop constantly maxing out one of cores (Intel), so I just use xfce.Thats my goal, too. I'd need a soundsystem on my host which can be controlled/accessed by mpd and it should be able to auto-connect to a bluetooth speaker. All that if possible without any user interaction, just be available after system boot. So far, PA worked ok (while not ideal as i have to do one mouseclick in X on the host to connect to the bluez device). Hope alsa can work with bluez well. And yes, xfce is a nice DE, i'm using it for years now, its the best fit in resource, stability and beauty"Beauty", are you sure? It looks like something out of the 1990s, which, of course, is what it is.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For many of us, beauty is in the clean functioning, stability, nice configuration tools, and relatively easy build of xfce. Other DEs have a significant amount of bloat. Some WMs have less overhead and some users like that. It all comes down to personal preference.
