Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) reached end-of-life on May 9, 2013.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases Please upgrade to the latest version and re-test. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575910 Title: "sudo pactl list" fails with "Connection refused" Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: pulseaudio since jaunty, I used a script which check whether music is played. It uses the following command: $ pactl list | grep RUNNING The script is called from rc.local, and as such, it is run by root. While in jaunty and karmic, everything works great, a fresh install of Lucid lets the script die. If I type in $ sudo pactl list | grep RUNNING it gives me the error: Home directory /home/produnis not ours. Connection refused I don't know what this means, as the script isn't stored in my home- folder, and it does no actions in my home-folder.... In sum: Running the comand as user "produnis", everything works well Running the comand as root, it gives me the error. Unfortunately, I MUST run the script as root (due to other action it does), so, is there any hint why it is not working any longer?
