Probably best to run after login: $ pulseaudio -k (to kill the running daemon: confirm it's stopped with: ps aux | grep pulse) $ pulseaudio -vvv (to run a new server and give lots of nice debug output). After doing this try paplay again and see what the server says about it in it's debug message. HTHs Col
