I'm hearing impaired and really need to get the system wide equalizer working. Although I'm not totally deaf I am extremely hard of hearing and being able to shape the sounds on my computer are a great help. For music I have found several music players with EQ built in but when I need to hear something coming across on a web page it becomes a problem. Anyway, I digress. LOL SO I have installed both pulseaudio and pulseaudio-equalizer from git but I can't seem to get a default.pa that works for me. When I startup pulseaudio and then type this; pacmd list-sinks|grep 'name:' I get this; name: <auto_null> I'm getting no sink or something. Maybe my sink is stopped up. :) and if I add the following to the mix: load-module module-equalizer-sink sink_name=equalized master=alsa_output set_default=true set-default-sink equalized it segfaults with; module-equalizer-sink.c: Master sink not found, trying default So any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks
