I am not experienced. I made no conscious decisions..! I've read that
running Pulseaudio as system-wide is very wrong
(http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/WhatIsWrongWithSystemWide/),
so I tried to change the permissions in hopes that that would help: I've
added myself and squeezeboxserver to the pulse-access group and
squeezeboxserver to the audio group (with: sudo usermod -g pulse-access
yakir, and sudo usermod -g pulse-access squeezeboxserver, and sudo
usermod -g audio squeezeboxserver). It didn't help... Any ideas?
