Title:
Fast respawning when module-alsa-sink can't be loaded
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Ah, got it. Pulseaudio won't start (under my user's account) because
of:
E: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-sink" (argument:
"device=plughw:0 rate=44100"): initialization failed.
E: main.c: Module load failed.
E: main.c: Failed to initialize daemon.
And that module was specified in ~/.pulse/default.pa, which is a
leftover from the time when pulseaudio wasn't working and I was trying
to do something about it.
So I deleted ~/.pulse/default.pa, stopped pulseaudio that was started
by hand and polkitd is still behaving perfectly fine. Even the music
is playing, although I have no pulseaudio running. :-)
Then I killed polkitd and it wasn't restarted. So I started pulseudio
by hand (from my user's account) and then polkitd appeared. It's
peacefully sleeping in poll() and isn't leaking memory.

Original report:
Binary package hint: policykit-1
Upon upgrading to the new build of Lucid, a problem I thought I had
fixed with policykit has reappeared. i am getting high CPU usage and
a memory leak from the process polkitd, run under policykit-1. Upon
boot and logging into a fresh account, I get no problems, but once I
log into my main account, the problem appears. Logging out and back
into the fresh account carries the problem over to the fresh account
as well. I noticed that there were three carry-over processes from
the main account: indicator-sound, pulseaudio, and the root process
polkitd. I thought I had fixed this through removing respawnable
hidden directories in my home folder, but that hasn't worked this
time.
