Bug ID: 105857
Summary: Autospawn fails on macOS 10.13 (High Sierra)
Product: PulseAudio
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: daemon
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
QA Contact: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
macOS 10.13 changed some rules around forking, which causes PulseAudio's
autospawn to fail.
Reproduction:
Assuming the daemon is not running, this will fail with "Connection refused":
$ pactl stat
Workaround:
Set the environment variable OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY to YES
$ export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES
$ pactl stat
Tested with 11.1 compiled for High Sierra from Homebrew.
