 |
|
Hello,
I'm trying to make mpd streams music to a chromecast compatible device (Sony SRS-X88).
I'm currently using gentoo versions of pulseaudio and mpd (both user configured to be launched as regular user uid=1000, not daemon) and pulseaudio-dlna to detect remote speaker.
I'm using last kde (5.10.5), currently I can stream audio to my speaker OK (just choosing it from the plasma multimedia setup , pavucontrol equivalent)
mpd works OK through hdmi output (pulse index 0) if no sink if specified
| Code: | > pacmd list-sinks
2 sink(s) available.

and my mpd.conf output file
| Code: | audio_output {
type "pulse"
name "MonaSons"
sink "raop.Chromecast.local"
## server "remote_server" # optional
#mixer_control "Master"
}
|
I'm currently getting this on my mpd log:
| Code: | Oct 30 21:57 : pulse_output: "MonaSons" [pulse] failed to play: failed to connect the stream: No such entity
Oct 30 21:57 : output: Failed to open audio output
|
I've tried different name possibilities for the sink, and also sink numbers, with no success.
I hope I can get some help, this kind of setup are more and more common if you don't want to be on the spotify reign.
Thanks,

Hi,
just set mpd with a pure pulse out
| Code: | audio_output {
type "pulse"
name "Mona"
}
|
Run pulseaudio-dlna and mpd from kde when computer starts
Set chromecast output as default
Works with 2s of delay, but work great. |
