Problem: non-interactive pulseaudio ( headless )

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

Heaving read how bad headless is, and how it's "rarely" needed and may not work, I was a bit blase about running my interactive art installation from systemd.

After all, systemd allows me to run as a user.

When I run as a non-interactive user, I get a "pulseaudio can't connect", which is an errno 6.  This happens from systemd, after everything's started, I'm just debugging so I'm running my systemctl start mylousy.service....

From what I read here, the aversion to running as a service is security, and if I run as a user everything should be fine, but it is the connect call that failing.

Regrettably I'm at a place with limited connectivity, but any tips would be welcome, or at least for the next person who is trying to run a perfectly reasonable headless installation.

Thanks & Regards,

-brian
