We have changed the socket path used for communication between PA and the clients. That's why the old PA server will not be found by the new client. The protocol should have stayed compatible however, so either use the TCP access method (as Colin suggested) or set $PULSE_SERVER to the full unix socket path. If anybody cares enough I am happy to take a patch that makes sure that PA tries to connect to PA versions that old, too. We have some code like that for very old PA versions, there is just something missing for some versions in the middle. However I generally can only recommend running the same client and server version together, as that is the only thing I test, and we don't have the testing or bugfixing manpower to support any other combinations properly.
