It should be /var/run/pulse/native. This is the socket that pulseaudio creates when you run it in system wide daemon mode. (ie. when you start it using the init script) > - PULSE_SERVER / PULSE_BINARY variables (Don't know what their > talking about) You force pulseaudio clients to connect to any pulseaudio daemon you want by setting the PULSE_SERVER environment variable. For example: $ export PULSE_SERVER=my-other-machine.local to connect to a pulseaudio daemon running on the host my-other-machine.local. Or: $ export PULSE_SERVER=unix:/var/run/pulse/native to connect to a pulseaudio daemon running in system wide mode on the local machine. See http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/ServerStrings for the full details. FAQ #18 might be of help too. > I seriously do not know what is going wrong.

(Before Lenny) PulseAudio usually works fine "out of the box" on Lenny. Maybe your best bet is to purge all the pulse packages and reinstall. -- CJ van den Berg mailto:cj at vdbonline.com xmpp:cj at vdbonline.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
