Well ... the command that is run on a properly functioning pulseaudio setup is: /usr/bin/pulseaudio --log-target=syslog and this is run by each user that is logged in. Where this is normally started up, I have no idea ... but I am still looking. But this is the proper command that should be run ... not the ones that you were using. Making sure you have this running in your session pactl load-module module-x11-xsmp and you should be most of the way there. /Mike -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
