Dear Sébastien,

The current osspd packages isn't working with current pulseaudio and it hasn't
for more than a year. I didn't file a bug back then, but I can confirm that
at the time it was a pulseaudio update that broke osspd.
Downgrading to an earlier version fixed the problem.

Here is what the osspd logs says:
ossp-padsp[] WARN: failed to subscribe to context events (Bad state)
ossp-padsp[] ERR: failed to connect context, state=5 (Bad state)

This bug has also been reported on launchpad for Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/osspd/+bug/1857810

Almost 18 months later, I did found (by pure luck) that the ArchLinux package
has a fix for this problem.
Please find a debdiff in attachment so that you can upload the fix in Debian.

Thanks a lot for this! I have applied the patch in the git version of the package. I'll look into moving to a non-deprecated debhelper compat level, and then upload a new version.

Would you be interested in helping maintain osspd? As you can tell from it not working for more than a year, I am not actually using this package any more. I am also not maintaining any other Debian packages, so each time something comes up I have to re-learn how to use the involved tools.^^

Kind regards,
Ralf
