Hi, I am running pulseaudio [0.9.21-63-gd3efa-dirty] in system mode. I just discovered that an identical command to play audio with mplayer works when logged into a local shell but fails when logged in remotely. Basically, using gnome-terminal on the desktop: luser at poppy:/music$ mplayer -ao pulse my-song.mp3 and that works. But when logged in via ssh [as luser], the same command does not work: I get the following in mplayer output: AO: [pulse] Init failed: Connection refused Failed to initialize audio driver 'pulse' Is there a reason for this? or am I somehow misconfigured? Thanks for any clarification, Brandon
