Package: pulseaudio Version: 2.0-6 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Upstream bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58758 There are two pulseaudio autostart files in /etc/xdg/autostart: pulseaudio.desktop and pulseaudio-kde.desktop, and they both try to start causing noticable delay of autostarted applications on KDE login (probably until some timeout is reached). Steps to reproduce: 1. Add Icedove, Pidgin, and Gkrellm to autostart (or some other applications): $ ls $HOME/.config/autostart GKrellM System Monitor.desktop Pidgin Internet Messenger.desktop Icedove Mail⁄News.desktop 2. Logout from KDE, and login again 3. Wait until splash screen disappears Expected behaviour: 4. The autostarted applications should start now Actual behaviour: 4. There is a noticable delay of several seconds (haven't measured exactly how many) 5. Then the autostarted applications start Solution: Add 'NotShowIn=KDE;' to /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop (or remove it, but that'd break Gnome, so don't) --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.8.7 Debian Release: 7.0 500 unstable ftp.ro.debian.org 500 testing security.debian.org 500 testing ftp.ro.debian.org 1 experimental ftp.ro.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed =======================================================-+-======================= libasound2 (>= 1.0.24.1) | libc6 (>= 2.9) | libcap2 (>= 2.10) | libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.1.1) | libfftw3-3 | libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) | libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0) | libltdl7 (>= 2.4.2) | liborc-0.4-0 (>= 1:0.4.16) | libpulse0 (= 2.0-6) | libsamplerate0 (>= 0.1.7) | libsm6 | libsndfile1 (>= 1.0.20) | libspeexdsp1 (>= 1.2~beta3.2-1) | libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1) | libsystemd-daemon0 (>= 31) | libsystemd-login0 (>= 31) | libtdb1 (>= 1.2.7+git20101214) | libudev0 (>= 146) | libwebrtc-audio-processing-0 | libx11-6 | libx11-xcb1 | libxcb1 | libxtst6 | adduser | lsb-base (>= 3.2-13) | consolekit | udev (>= 143) | libasound2-plugins | Recommends (Version) | Installed =======================================-+-=========== pulseaudio-module-x11 | 2.0-6 gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio | 0.10.31-3+nmu1 rtkit | 0.10-2 Suggests (Version) | Installed ===============================-+-=========== pulseaudio-utils | 2.0-6 pavumeter | pavucontrol | paman | paprefs | _______________________________________________ pkg-pulseaudio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-pulseaudio-devel
