When using pulse as an ordinary user on FreeBSD, I get an shm_open() error: $ ogg123 file.ogg shm.c: shm_open() failed: Permission denied Assertion failed: (pool), function pa_pstream_new, file pulsecore/pstream.c, line 221. Abort trap: 6 (core dumped) However, when running as root, I get no such problems: # ogg123 file.ogg Audio Device: PulseAudio Output Playing: file.ogg ... [snipped output] This goes whether or not I run pulseaudio in system-mode or not. And regardless of the --disable-shm option on pulseaudio (the daemon). Also, I get the same behaviour on paplay, so this has got nothing to do with the libao abstracion in ogg123. Does anyone know how I could fix this? It says permission denied, so presumably there's some access control mechanism that I could alter? Best regards, Svein Halvor
