OK, I think the discussion went to the wrong direction. The question is : Lets say we have a Linux box with pulseaudio configured and running. How can one login with dtlogin and start pulseaudio correctly as a user so that the sound will work.
After I login with dtogin I can run /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog I can see the process is running and it also starts /usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper but still there is no sound, and alsamixer reports connot open mixer: no such file or directory There have been two suggestions. One to try to replicate lightdm.conf and the other to forget pulse. About the first suggestion why the user can not start pulseaudio and has to go to deeper waters? About the second, pulseaudio is needed. For example, CDE can not be expected to run on LTSP without pulseaudio. And CDE on LTSP would be great. So the question is if anybody knows anything about starting pulseaudio properly as a user.
