Re: [gentoo-user] Selective news?
Take a look in "/etc/pulse/client.conf". You can either set "autospawn = yes" or comment it. "pulseaudio" is automatically started via "/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop"; at least in my case. -Ramon On 31/07/2022 14:33, Alexander Puchmayr wrote: Not sure which start script to add it to; .login or .profile are unsuitable because it would then start it at every login even with ssh). -- GPG public key: 5983 98DA 5F4D A464 38FD CF87 155B E264 13E6 99BF OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: [gentoo-user] Selective news?
Same here, pulseaudio daemon is no longer started automatically. Starting it
from a shell (simply call pulseaudio ) and audio works fine again.
Not sure which start script to add it to; .login or .profile are unsuitable
because it would then start it at every login even with ssh).

But pulseaudio is installed, having been pulled in by plasma-meta; that's why
I was puzzled.

The only pertinent difference between the machines is that one is amd64, the
other ~amd64. Well, the ~amd64 box has no sound hardware, but apart from

And it has worked well for me too until now.

Yes, I saw that, and no, I hadn't heard of it either.
