Hi, I wanted to switch from esd to pulseaudio on my debian etch system. So I stopped the esd (which worked fine before, using alsa as backend), installed all the pulseaudio packages, added myself to the pulse, pulse-rt and pulse-access groups and started the daemon. However, I cant hear any sound: > >jba at lisa:~$ paplay /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav >Failed to drain stream: Timeout >jba at lisa:~$ (no sound) And: >jba at lisa:~$ pactl upload-sample /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav >jba at lisa:~$ pactl upload-sample /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav pop >jba at lisa:~$ pactl play-sample pop >jba at lisa:~$ (no sound) But: ------------------------------------------ jba at lisa:~$ ps axu | grep pulse pulse 3775 0.0 0.1 7064 2784 ?

These are the messages from syslog, when starting the system: ------------------------------------------ Nov 1 12:29:14 lisa pulseaudio[3775]: alsa-util.c: device doesn't support 44100 Hz, changed to 48000 Hz.

Any hints?
