Tanu -
Thank you. I made the changes you suggested (removed
pulseaudio.socket from two locations where I found the file: /etc/systemd/system/and /etc/systemd/system/sockets.targets.wants. In the file pulseaudio.service, I commented out the lines
"Requires=pulseaudio.socket"; "ConditionUser=!root" and "Also=pulseaudio.socket".
Please note that there also two occurrences of this file: /etc/systemd/system/and /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.targets.wants. Perhaps the second occurrences are system-generated.
I then had sound from the web browser! VLC was still providing sound as before (but I gather not using pulsesaudio). After logging out then logging back in (not rebooting), there was no web
browser sound and a new error: Failed to load module "module-x11-publish". This also occurred after rebooting and booting from a cold start.
After the reboot, a further error arose: Error opening PCM device front:0: Device or resource busy. Also, the /var/run/.pulse cookie does
exist. The systemctl status reports in full are at
https://susepaste.org/99540079
. I'm unable to determine what I did to cause these errors.

You don't need pulseaudio.socket if you're starting pulseaudio at boot, so remove that file and from pulseaudio.service remove the "Requires=pulseaudio.socket" and "Also=pulseaudio.socket" lines. Also remove the "ConditionUser=!root" line. -- Tanu |
