Are you using the pulseaudio sound server? If so, have you explored whether pulse (in default per-user config mode) could be the culprit (it comes in a solid second in a number of blame games, after Lennart's brain child)? Although it is ill-advised, it may be necessary to run it in system-wide mode for your use case. Or put yourself in the audio group. Or something. I haven't taken the time to try to reproduce your problem here. I can report, however, that switching ttys entails no noticeable delay on this up-to-date Stretch machine. Good luck. > Looks like SystemD may *NOT* be spawning the 6 Text Login Screens, like > the SysV Init Package did? > > What gives? > > Thank you and best regards, > > Kenneth Parker >
