Title:
[raring] Pulse audio fails to start with error 'Failed to open module
"module-esound-protocol-unix": file not found'
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in “pulseaudio” source package in Raring:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I dist-upgraded to raring I lost audio. The indicator and
settings showed no volume control.
Some debugging later showed that pulse audio wasn't running.
When running manually:
bob@alchemy:~/bzr/ubuntu/vte3$ pulseaudio
E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to open module
"module-esound-protocol-unix": file not found
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon.
I installed pulseaudio-esound-compat and then it worked:
bob@alchemy:~/bzr/ubuntu/vte3$ sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-esound-compat

Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
Luke said it worked for him without this module, but it appears having
the i386 module installed was confusing pulse into thinking it was
available but being unable to load it (I am using an amd64 machine).
