The connection to the server hasn't been properly established yet when you call pa_stream_connect_playback(). Right after calling pa_context_connect() you should register a callback with pa_context_set_state_callback() that gets called whenever the context state changes. Then run the mainloop until the state becomes PA_CONTEXT_READY or PA_CONTEXT_FAILED, see pa_context_get_state(). Hope this helps. -- Tanu Kaskinen
