 |
|
It's all in the title I guess, I've followed all the steps on the wiki page for pulseaudio but it still won't start. All packages are current. See below for the output of any commands I thought might be relevant.
| Code: | [~] $ pulseaudio
W: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting.
E: [pulseaudio] module-stream-restore.c: Assertion 'pa_database_unset(u->database, &key) >= 0' failed at /var/tmp/portage/media-sound/pulseaudio-8.0/work/pulseaudio-8.0/src/modules/module-stream-restore.c:2332, function clean_up_db(). Aborting.
zsh: abort pulseaudio
[~] $ pgrep udev
1365
[~] $ /etc/init.d/consolekit status
* status: started
[~] $ getfacl /dev/snd/controlC0 | grep -Eo "user:.+:" | cut -d: -f2
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
[~] $ grep pulseaudio /etc/portage/make.conf
USE="bindist mmx sse sse2 -qt4 -kde -cdr -dvd -acpi -aim pulseaudio -qt5 \

EDIT: Found the problem, I still had an old ~/.config/pulse/ from a previous installation that messed things up. Removing that directory fixed it, making as [SOLVED] |

Just for future (if someone also have same issue).
This bug occurs if some bluetooth audio connects, then pulseaudio stops/crash... and after next pulse startup it will try to restore state of bluetooth audio device and will fail.
To fix this issue:
| Code: | | rm ~/.config/pulse/* |
I will suggest to save and restore | Code: | | ~/.config/pulse/cookie |
file if you have any shared pulse client (like in my case) |
