Package: pulseaudio Version: 5.0-13 Followup-For: Bug #521675 Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Trying to use pulseaudio. I follow the next guides to try to configure it out: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Configuring_Sound_on_Linux/Pulse_Audio/Testing https://wiki.debian.org/PulseAudio https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? before changing owner of /run/user/1000/pulse from root to user it gives when running pacat Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/1000/pulse): Permission denied Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused When I manually change owner to local user I continue to reveive the following message: Connection failure: Connection refused Using pacmd it returns: Daemon not responding. When using xfreerdp with audio, microphone and multimedia options it returns the following messages: Loading Dynamic Virtual Channel audin Warning rdpsnd_pulse_connect (115): bad context state (6) Warning freerdp_rdpsnd_client_subsystem_entry (619): rdpsnd_pulse_connect failed Warning rdpsnd_load_device_plugin (548): pulse entry returns error. Warning audin_pulse_connect (117): bad context state (6) Warning audin_load_device_plugin (461): pulse entry returns error. Loading Dynamic Virtual Channel tsmf With alsa I can ear sound and it seems to be working everything ok. In debian systemd I didn't found pulseaudio service, so I started daemon manually and finished it as mentioned in the guides I pointed above. I realise that is missing updated documentation for pulse audio configuration for debian. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: Kali Linux 1.0.9 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages pulseaudio depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii libasound2 1.0.28-1 ii libasound2-plugins 1.0.28-1+b1 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libcap2 1:2.24-6 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.10-1 ii libfftw3-single3 3.3.4-1.1 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.2-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1 ii libltdl7 2.4.2-1.11 ii liborc-0.4-0 1:0.4.22-1 ii libpulse0 5.0-13 ii libsamplerate0 0.1.8-8 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1 ii libsndfile1 1.0.25-9+b1 ii libspeexdsp1 1.2~rc1.2-1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.2-1 ii libsystemd0 215-5+b1 ii libtdb1 1.3.1-1 ii libudev1 215-5+b1 ii libwebrtc-audio-processing-0 0.1-3 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxcb1 1.10-3+b1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 ii pulseaudio-utils 5.0-13 ii udev 215-5+b1 Versions of packages pulseaudio recommends: ii pulseaudio-module-x11 5.0-13 ii rtkit 0.11-2 Versions of packages pulseaudio suggests: ii paman 0.9.4-1 ii paprefs 0.9.10-1 ii pavucontrol 2.0-3 ii pavumeter 0.9.3-4 -- Configuration Files: /etc/pulse/daemon.conf changed: daemonize = yes ; fail = yes ; allow-module-loading = yes ; allow-exit = yes ; use-pid-file = yes system-instance = yes ; local-server-type = user ; enable-shm = yes ; shm-size-bytes = 0 # setting this 0 will use the system-default, usually 64 MiB ; lock-memory = no ; cpu-limit = no ; high-priority = yes ; nice-level = -11 ; realtime-scheduling = yes ; realtime-priority = 5 ; exit-idle-time = 20 ; scache-idle-time = 20 ; dl-search-path = (depends on architecture) ; load-default-script-file = yes ; default-script-file = /etc/pulse/default.pa ; log-target = auto ; log-level = notice ; log-meta = no ; log-time = no ; log-backtrace = 0 ; resample-method = speex-float-1 ; enable-remixing = yes ; enable-lfe-remixing = no ; flat-volumes = yes ; rlimit-fsize = -1 ; rlimit-data = -1 ; rlimit-stack = -1 ; rlimit-core = -1 ; rlimit-as = -1 ; rlimit-rss = -1 ; rlimit-nproc = -1 ; rlimit-nofile = 256 ; rlimit-memlock = -1 ; rlimit-locks = -1 ; rlimit-sigpending = -1 ; rlimit-msgqueue = -1 ; rlimit-nice = 31 ; rlimit-rtprio = 9 ; rlimit-rttime = 1000000 ; default-sample-format = s16le ; default-sample-rate = 44100 ; alternate-sample-rate = 48000 ; default-sample-channels = 2 ; default-channel-map = front-left,front-right ; default-fragments = 4 ; default-fragment-size-msec = 25 ; enable-deferred-volume = yes ; deferred-volume-safety-margin-usec = 8000 ; deferred-volume-extra-delay-usec = 0 /etc/pulse/default.pa changed: ..nofail ..fail load-module module-device-restore load-module module-stream-restore load-module module-card-restore load-module module-augment-properties ..ifexists module-udev-detect.so load-module module-udev-detect ..else load-module module-detect ..endif ..ifexists module-jackdbus-detect.so ..nofail load-module module-jackdbus-detect channels=2 ..fail ..endif ..ifexists module-bluetooth-policy.so load-module module-bluetooth-policy ..endif ..ifexists module-bluetooth-discover.so load-module module-bluetooth-discover ..endif ..ifexists module-esound-protocol-unix.so load-module module-esound-protocol-unix ..endif load-module module-native-protocol-unix ..ifexists module-gconf.so ..nofail load-module module-gconf ..fail ..endif load-module module-default-device-restore load-module module-rescue-streams load-module module-always-sink load-module module-intended-roles load-module module-suspend-on-idle ..ifexists module-console-kit.so load-module module-console-kit ..endif ..ifexists module-systemd-login.so load-module module-systemd-login ..endif load-module module-position-event-sounds load-module module-role-cork load-module module-filter-heuristics load-module module-filter-apply -- no debconf information
