That happens, because default.pa needs to contain something - I remember correctly, pulseaudio checks if there are any modules loaded, and if not, it refuses to start. Anyway, default.pa should load at least the communication protoco module and modules for output devices. So, the correct procedure is to copy /etc/pulse/default.pa to ~/.pulse/ and then do the edits in the personal copy. > 2.)

If you give just two commas as the control argument, the module refuses to load, because it requires 15 parameters, whereas the two commas translate to just three parameters (with default values). Most of the error messages went to syslog, since you started pulseaudio with the -D switch (D as in daemonize). Leave -D out and you get all output to the console. >> I might announce it already: a working, although incomplete, graphical >> EQ implementation is now available for PulseAudio.
