Package: pavucontrol
Version: 0.99.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

     pulseaudio is running fine on my system, howver for some reason, the 
connect_to_pulse function in pavucontrol.cc fails; specifically the 
pa_connect_context call. This causes connect_to_pulse to return false to the 
main loop. However, the main loop does not check the return value of 
connect_to_pulse. Either an exception must be generated somewhere (which 
apparently is not happening inside pa_connect_context, this would make sense as 
the main loop is catching a Glib::OptionError exception -- nothing else), or 
the return value must be checked. If not checking the return value, it may make 
sense to change the function from a boolean to a void function.

     Either way, the program, as it stands simply sits there displaying 
"Establishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait...", and does nothing, as 
the context call fails. An error message should be generated.
