I managed to get sound working but I have to keep 'pavucontrol' in the
startup of each client and if I close pavucontrol the audio stops working.
With pavucontrol started
: pactl list sinks short
0 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo module-alsa-card.c
s16le 2ch 44100Hz IDLE
Closing pavucontrol & try playing something then type the pactl list
again give me this:
: pactl list sinks short
0 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo module-alsa-card.c
s16le 2ch 48000Hz SUSPENDED
I also had to setup my server /etc/asound.conf with the following:
pcm.!default { type pulse }
ctl.!default { type pulse }
And set up the following /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf
[Default]
SOUND_DAEMON = pulse
SOUND = True
LDM_LANGUAGE=en_AU.utf8
# For ltsp-info to read proc and shutdown clients
ALLOW_PROCREAD = Y
ALLOW_SHUTDOWN = Y
TIMEZONE=Australia/Melbourne
# Grant access to /media /opt and /home on server from local_apps
# These are not working for some reason
LOCALDEV_DENY_INTERNAL_DISKS=False
MOUNT_LOCAL_OPT=True
MOUNT_LOCAL_MEDIA=True
MOUNT_LOCAL_REAL_HOME=True
# You may have to use local apps for anything which links to a
local camera
LOCAL_APPS=True
LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/media,/opt
LOCAL_APPS_MENU=True
#LOCAL_APPS_MENU_ITEMS=skype,cheese
# Allow use of ltsp-remoteapps within localapps on the terminals
# mainly used for associating programs to filetypes
REMOTE_APPS=True
# Turn off encryption between server and client. Speeds things up.
LDM_DIRECTX=True
# Required so clients can mount HTC Desire phones as disk drives
MODULE_01 = "usb-uhci"
MODULE_02 = "usb-storage"
MODULE_03 = "sd_mod"
Does anyone know why I have to keep pavucontrol running? Does it start a
background process? Could another sound daemon be stealing the sound
device and not give it back? I'm using xfce4 does it have anything built
in which would take control of the audio system?
