I can't. The HTPC has no real users, it's just a box playing music/radio, and rarely movies. Most of the time it's headless, and nobody logs into it. PA is running in system mode because different local "users" (mpd, xbmc) and remote ones (true users) have to connect to it. But the remote users don't exist on the machine. Xav
