Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.2.6-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I use PulseAudio by starting it as a service:
---
[Unit]
Description=PulseAudio system server
[Service]
Type=notify
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pulseaudio --daemonize=no --system --realtime
--log-target=journal
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
---
but after updating the alsa-utils package from version 1.2.5-2 to
version 1.2.6-1, pulseaudio does not start and the status of the service
returns this error:
PulseAudio [1620]: Failed to Load Module "Module-Native-Protocol-Unix"
(Argument: ""): Initialization Failed.
I have compared the contents of the two packages and I noticed that the
services:
- alsa-state.service
- alsa-restore.service
have been moved from the path "/usr/lib/systemd/system" ->
"/lib/systemd/system" and this create the problem.
ln -sfn
/lib/systemd/system/{sound.target.wants,alsa-restore.service,alsa-state.service}
/usr/lib/systemd/system/
And this time, at reboot, everything worked.
I think it is necessary to create this symlinks in the post-installation
script to avoid interruptions of the audio system.
Thank you,
Antonio
