Package: fluidsynth Version: 2.4.0-1 Followup-For: Bug #1053245 Hi,
Some progress have been made in 2.4.0-1 packaging on this issue as its unit service is now in userland. But there is still an issue opening a user session on my Sid system with a GNOME desktop: $ systemctl --user status fluidsynth × fluidsynth.service - FluidSynth Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/user/fluidsynth.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: protocol) since Sun 2024-12-29 11:47:41 CET; 6min ago Invocation: b91cda23db4d4466b0c1dab6be5d06a6 Docs: man:fluidsynth(1) Process: 2647 ExecStart=/usr/bin/fluidsynth -is $OTHER_OPTS $SOUND_FONT (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 2647 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Mem peak: 169.5M CPU: 899ms déc. 29 11:47:36 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: Continuing without it. déc. 29 11:47:36 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: fluidsynth: warning: Failed to set thread to high priority déc. 29 11:47:40 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: fluidsynth: warning: Failed to set thread to high priority déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: FluidSynth runtime version 2.4.0 déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: Copyright (C) 2000-2024 Peter Hanappe and others. déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: Distributed under the LGPL license. déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops fluidsynth[2647]: SoundFont(R) is a registered trademark of Creative Technology Ltd. déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops systemd[2619]: fluidsynth.service: Failed with result 'protocol'. déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops systemd[2619]: Failed to start fluidsynth.service - FluidSynth Daemon. déc. 29 11:47:41 kos-moceratops systemd[2619]: fluidsynth.service: Consumed 899ms CPU time, 169.5M memory peak. And (re)starting it after the session is opened is ok to me. My theory is that it seems somehow it requires more than pipewire as declared in the service file. The trouble is that it is supposed to have 'pipewire' as a possible audio driver: $ fluidsynth -a help -a options (audio driver): 'alsa','file','jack','oss','pipewire','pulseaudio','sdl2' Could this be a problem due to audio driver initialization in fluidsynth when none is defined by configuration? (OTHER_OPTS is commented in /etc/default/fluidsynth and no ~/.config/fluidsynth) Or maybe there is something to document in a README.Debian file.
