[Bug 309724] Re: no sound after fast switching between logged in users
User switching breaks pulseaudio for me now all the time. If I kill all pulseaudio sessions and start my own again with pulse-session I get sound again. For firefox to regain sound i need to kill it too. However, this is not the intended muting of curently inactive user, or if it is, its broken. My problem is that my session loses all sound if there is another users session live, but not active. -- no sound after fast switching between logged in users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi LimCore, I did this but without any success. I still got an instances of pulse per user. Did you do anything else?

[Bug 309724] Re: no sound after fast switching between logged in users
Ok the solution (to have sound from all users at once, if you are logged in several desktop sessions at once) is: 1) edit as root /etc/default/pulseaudio and set there: PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=1 2) add all users that use sound to groups: pulse-access and pulse-rt 3) restart computer I also did remove /home/*/.pulse* and added to group pulse also - but this was probably not needed and a bad idea -- no sound after fast switching between logged in users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug still happens for me; I am logged as 2 desktop users A and B. If I am in user's B VT (VT-9) then the sound from user A does not play and vice-versa. Effects mplayer, kaffeine, totem.

[Bug 309724] Re: no sound after fast switching between logged in users
It seems that this is this way by design (thanks chowmeined for the hint)? If yes, then some users do NOT want this sound to auto-stop. Then sound system should allow simultaneous playback from VT-7, VT-9 etc desktops, and should give an option to auto-mute or not. -- no sound after fast switching between logged in users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

System wide pulseaudio not supported.

[Bug 309724] Re: no sound after fast switching between logged in users
you are right :-) PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START is 0 and i should not start it system wide. i checked (just now) the system wide running process, after a clear boot and pulseaudio only had -D --log-target=syslog for each of the instances.

nadavkav, don't supply the --system switch when you start pulseaudio. Also, I guess PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START should be 0 in /etc/init.d/pulseaudio, can this setting have been changed on your machine? -- no sound after fast switching between logged in users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Is this symptom reproducible if you do NOT use a system-wide pulseaudio daemon instance (which is UNsupported by upstream for desktop usage)? ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Status: New = Incomplete -- no sound after fast switching between logged in users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
