Pulse Audio problem

[REmaxer]

When i try to start pulse audio with pulseaudio -D i get this error:

[VoidMage]

Why exactly are you running in system mode ?

[REmaxer]

to allow gnome-volume-control to use connection.
But the big problem is that i haven't pulseaudio's daemon

conf.d/pulseaudio
init.d/pulseaudio

But your problem is with your pulseaudio config. VoidMage's question is a good one.

[REmaxer]

Can i copy source /etc/init.d/pulseaudio in a new file?

[REmaxer]

Now it tell me

[REmaxer]

now:

daemon already running
pa_pid_file_create() failed

[VoidMage]

Well, if the daemon is already running, there's no reason to run it again.

And what exactly "to allow gnome-volume-control to use connection" should mean ?

okej pulseaudio is running .and you have set the :

pcm.!default { 
    type pulse 
} 

ctl.!default { 
    type pulse 
}

in asoundrc

i am using kde so for me to use pulseaudio,i had to set it in kde settings.
and set the pulseaudio useflag in make.conf.the only thing that dont use pulseaudio
on my system is flashplayer.and i am using pavumeter to handle the sound setup.

type:

speaker-test -Dsurround51 -c6 -twav

do you hear something

[REmaxer]

speaker-test -Dsurround51 -c6 -twav:



Playback device is surround51
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channels
WAV file(s)
Channels count (6) not available for playbacks: Invalid argument
Setting of hwparams failed: Invalid argument

[REmaxer]

I use fluxbox ...
i haven't asoundrc so i created it and put in your words....
ALSA work in vLC but pulse audio no..

[hedmo]

vlc runs pulseaudio by default if you set pulseaudio in
make.conf and update your world.getting back with the speaker test
tomorrow when I am at my box again.

[REmaxer]

But Pulseaudio working,only i can't hear anything..

[hedmo]

REmaxer

yes pulseaudio is up running,you have to select
the pulseaudio server output to get sound but you have
some alsa problem(your sound test did not work) so first
fix alsa.I am my way to work now but I get back after that.

[REmaxer]

THanks,and one more thing, in vlc alsa , make a stranger sound higher and then lower each 3 seconds...
