Using pulseaudio-5.0 and gnome-session/gnome-shell-3.10.x compiled from source 
on tinycorelinux x86_64.

If I start gnome-session from the console prompt, pulseaudio only shows a dummy 
output, even though my hardware is detected as per aplay/alsamixer.

D: [pulseaudio] module.c: Checking for existence of 
'/usr/local/lib/pulse/modules/module-udev-detect.so': success
I: [pulseaudio] module-udev-detect.c: Found 0 cards.

On the same machine and without changing anything, if I first start another 
window manager (flwm) from the console prompt, pulseaudio works fine. If I then 
exit back to the console prompt and start gnome-session, pulseaudio also works 
fine. The only issue being that the speaker test in gnome-control-center does 
not produce any sound.

I don't understand why pulseaudio/gnome-session would not work in the first 
case, but does work in the second case. I suppose it's a permissions issue, but 
the same user is being used in both cases.

Any trouble-shooting pointers would be much appreciated.

Regards
John
