When I start the computer, pulseaudio is not working after I've logged in. If I type: start-pulseaudio-x11 from the command line, I get "Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused" and I cannot play any sound. If I type pulseaudio& on the command line, I can get sound in some applications (e.g. Audacity) but not others (e.g. Firefox or other browsers). At some point a command line message appears that says: "E: [pulseaudio] bluez5-util.c: GetManagedObjects() failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." I'm not clear why there's a reference to bluez5-util, since I don't have bluetooth on my machine. pulseaudio: Installed: 1:8.0-0ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:8.0-0ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1:8.0-0ubuntu3 500 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: alsa-base 1.0.25+dfsg-0ubuntu5 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-31.50-generic 4.4.13 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-31-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Tue Jul 19 17:43:11 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-05-10 (70 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.1) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: alsa-driver Symptom: audio Symptom_AlsaPlaybackTest: ALSA playback test through plughw:NVidia failed Symptom_Card: GK208 HDMI/DP Audio Controller - HDA NVidia Symptom_Jack: Digital Out, HDMI Symptom_Type: No sound at all Title: [Z97X-UD3H, Nvidia GPU 51 HDMI/DP, Digital Out, HDMI] No sound at all UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 04/21/2015 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: F8 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: Z97X-UD3H-CF dmi.board.vendor: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. dmi.board.version: x.x dmi.chassis.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. dmi.chassis.version: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvrF8:bd04/21/2015:svnGigabyteTechnologyCo.,Ltd.:pnZ97X-UD3H:pvrTobefilledbyO.E.M.:rvnGigabyteTechnologyCo.,Ltd.:rnZ97X-UD3H-CF:rvrx.x:cvnGigabyteTechnologyCo.,Ltd.:ct3:cvrToBeFilledByO.E.M.: dmi.product.name: Z97X-UD3H dmi.product.version: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.sys.vendor: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
