The fact that it works when running under strace must be some sort of side effect of strace. [snip] > setpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, 0, -15) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) This looks like the actual problem. pulseaudio is trying to set realtime priority and failing due to lack of permissions. The pulseaudio executable is supposed to be installed suid root so this should work fine. Can you please check the permissions on /usr/bin/pulseaudio? If it's not suid root can you also try purging the package and reinstalling to see if the permissions are set properly. -- CJ van den Berg mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
