I've performed the #11 solution, having a 64 bit installation, and put the .java.policy file in my user home but I still have same issue: audio device is not accessible.

Instead, it's in a different directory: $ dpkg -L openjdk-6-jre | grep pulse /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/i386/libpulse-java.so Making a symbolic link fixed everything and made it work: $ ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/ext/i386 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2010-02-22 11:19 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/ext/i386 -> ../i386 I can't say how the policies should be managed for applets, but even regular java programs aren't likely to work until the packaging is fixed. -Dave To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/525883/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
