Actually we have that already in README.Debian since 2015 (and I wrote that file — seems as if I'm getting demented): ---8<--- BB vs PulseAudio ================ Unfortunately BB does not work under X if PulseAudio is active and Music is requested. Due to this issue Music in BB is turned off by default in Debian. If you have PulseAudio installed and want to show off BB with Music, you can do that by either: * switching to the virtual text console and running "bb" there, or by * temporarily letting PulseAudio release the audio hardware and hiding from "bb" the fact that there is a PulseAudio server with the following command: pasuspender -- env PULSE_SERVER= bb This issue is tracked in the Debian Bug Tracking System at https://bugs.debian.org/761023 -- Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>, Sat, 11 Apr 2015 15:22:37 +0200 --->8--- Andrej: Does this help you? Matt: You said, you had the issue also on the console. Could you check if that "pasuspender -- env PULSE_SERVER= bb" command workarounds the issue for you on the virtual console, too? Maybe there's more virtual console support from pulseaudio nowadays… Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>, https://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 `- | 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE
