More information I've found that pulseaudio isn't running on the client and if I try and start it manually I get the following errror: E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to open module "module-esound-protocol-tcp": file not found E: [pulseaudio] module-gconf.c: pa_module_load() failed Also every time I start my mplayer test it adds one process to a queue for the pulseaudio system which I can see if I type 'sudo netstat -anp | grep 4713'. All the sound jobs from the thin client sit in the queue and then time out. Whilst they are sitting in the queue they have the words 'TIME_WAIT' next to them, this is when I'm getting the error 'Audio device got stuck!' in mplayer. Also I think I'm getting close to the other problem which is when I adjust the volume levels on the thin client the servers volume goes up and down as well, this seems to be an issue with xfce4-volumed, this daemon seems to be listening to any volume control on any of the connected systems to the LTSP machine and adjusting all volume levels on all machines connected (thin clients & the server). from Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
