I added the two lines, installed the module and restarted pulseaudio. BTW has same problem other daemons had of not detecting their pid file. Ooollld bug. Using ogg123 without any -d alsa: Works without jack running. Not with jack running. There is now a messagb dbus daemon around which is taking a lot of resources, idle, which pulseaudio apparently uses. Cannot start it without that. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
