No it doesn't. FS> Alternatively, there is one report that the latest pulseaudio 7 is not FS> working for them (#800120) No that didn't help as his problem was something else. No, puring and reinstalling alsa-tools alsa-utils pulseaudio etc. and rebooting doesn't help. And the only difference between my machine and others that have sound is /var . # journalctl|grep puls 10月 24 14:21:53 jidanni2 pulseaudio[1092]: [autospawn] core-util.c: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (/tmp) is not owned by us (uid 1000), but by uid 0!
