That is so here as well, but not a problem for my purpose, as I just want to listen to audio, not view video. > To setup this communication both the pulseaudio daemon configuration and > the parec application have to be told which unix domain socket is to be > used.

Logout/in was not required. *pulseaudio -k* was sufficient as the daemon restarts itself automatically as soon as you kill it. !! > I have tested as much as I can but my system configuration is not the > same your systems and I didn't want to alter mine too much as it would > break my application setup. No problem. It just works. It would be nice to figure out how to reduce the latency, but as I said I can live with that. I may also try the PCM and MP3 options later when I figure out how :-) but for now this works just fine. > To setup the configuration... Following it step by step just worked. Thank you. I chose to make the file changes, not change the shell prompt, but I'll keep that in mind as an option later. Thanks again. This is for a budding musician to be able to listen to and practice his parts at home as well as numerous other applications. Truly a star in the LMS crown. Well done. Happy New Year.
