to clarify:
the workaround is as follows
1) get the pulseaudio pid, kill it and restart the pulseaudio server
kill $(ps aux | grep "pulseaudio --start" | grep -v grep | awk '{print
$2}') && pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
** Description changed:
what happened:
after disconnecting an hdmi cable from my computer, there was no audio from
my computer.
pulseaudio had crashed.
i noticed this by opening the sound settings dialog and clicking the "test
sound" button: nothing happened, no dialog popped up.
- subsequently, i did a ps aux | grep pulseaudio and killed the pid of the
server.
- then i started the server again with the same command that the process i
killed obviously used.
+ subsequently, i did a:
+ ps aux | grep pulseaudio
+
+ and killed the pid of the pulseaudio server (SIGTERM).
+ then i started the server again with the same command that the process i
killed obviously used:
+ /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
+
+
problem worked-around.
