Sorry about the top post.

I did not register a dbus_connection_add_filter().  I have added a
DBusHandlerResult function based on the examples here:
https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez/+/utils-3.4/hcid/dbus-error.c
and
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2003-September/000468.html

The second one uses an object DBusMessageHandler, which I think is
from glib/dbus-glib.  Maybe I'm wrong there.  My function looks like
this:

DBusHandlerResult listen_to_core_Handler(DBusConnection *connection,
DBusMessage *message, void *user_data)

{

    debug_print("Message received from Pulse Core.\n");

    debug_print("Signature:%s\n", dbus_message_get_signature(message));

}

and I add a call to dbus_connection_add_filter() in my main thread using:

dbus_connection_add_filter(PA_bus, listen_to_core_Handler, NULL, NULL);


Still nothing.  I should also say that the signal name string I'm
using is "org.PulseAudio.Core1.NewModule".

Thanks for all the help so far.
