I'm trying to play some sound as a user. But pulseaudio can't find any outputs: $ aplay -l aplay: device_list:268: no soundcards found...

OK, thanks to archwiki, solved this by adding the user to group audio usermod -a -G audio [user] $ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: VT2020 Analog [VT2020 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 ....... But pulseaudio still only has the dummy soundcard: pacmd list-sinks 1 sink(s) available. * index: 0 ............ properties: device.description = "Dummy Output" device.class = "abstract" device.icon_name = "audio-card" Puzzled why this is so complicated. sean -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
