Here is all I got from the logs -- there is no pulse audio log by itself, but in the normal kernel logs I have Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5859]: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to open cookie file '/home/covici/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5859]: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to load authorization key '/home/covici/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5862]: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to open cookie file '/home/covici/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5862]: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to load authorization key '/home/covici/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5862]: [pulseaudio] server-lookup.c: Unable to contact D-Bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a db\us-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11 Jul 1 11:11:47 ccs pulseaudio[5862]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Unable to contact D-Bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon\ without a $DISPLAY for X11 Since X is not running I am not surprised that it says there is no display. But I see nothing about a card.
