Package: pulseaudio Version: 0.9.5-4 Severity: normal Hello,
It seems that user 'pulse' is not made member of group 'audio'. When trying to set up a global PulseAudio server, this leads to problems since the pulse server is not allowed to access the audio devices. Thus for example module-hal-detect fails and the daemon exits without a useful warning.
