Thanks! Unfortunately I have two custom sinks, my system.pa contains: load-module module-alsa-sink device="hw:0,0" sink_name="seat0" load-module module-alsa-sink device="hw:2,7" sink_name="seat1" ### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available .ifexists module-udev-detect.so load-module module-udev-detect .else ### Use the static hardware detection module (for systems that lack udev/hal support) load-module module-detect .endif ### Load several protocols .ifexists module-esound-protocol-unix.so load-module module-esound-protocol-unix .endif load-module module-native-protocol-unix auth-anonymous=1 ### Automatically restore the volume of streams and devices load-module module-stream-restore load-module module-device-restore ### Automatically restore the default sink/source when changed by the user ### during runtime ### NOTE: This should be loaded as early as possible so that subsequent modules ### that look up the default sink/source get the right value load-module module-default-device-restore ### Automatically move streams to the default sink if the sink they are ### connected to dies, similar for sources load-module module-rescue-streams ### Make sure we always have a sink around, even if it is a null sink. load-module module-always-sink ### Automatically suspend sinks/sources that become idle for too long load-module module-suspend-on-idle ------------------------------------------------------------- If PA is started via command as root it works. But if same command is run via systemd, happens Got signal SIGTERM.
