First of all, I'd like to thank Colin for the hint to get the patches from rawhide rpm. While I can see all the patches on gitweb, there's so many of them, it's hard to tell which should I get. With those patches 0.9.13 seems to work just as good as 0.9.12 did (without them I was often getting 'killed by cpu usage' message). Now, the problem. I'm running pulseaudio daemon in system mode by a dedicated (a nologin) user. However, in these conditions pactl fails to work. What would be the simplest way to connect to that deamon, the way pactl does ? Also, for a system deamon using module-hal-detect, what would be a correct way to pass options to module-alsa-sink ? PS.: am I just unlucky or is it really that hard to get some help on the irc channel ?
