I think this is what you want: $ grep Pidgin ~/.pulse/volume-restore.table pulsecore/protocol-native.c$Pidgin Or maybe this is much more useful: I: client.c: Created 43 "Native client (UNIX socket client)" I: protocol-native.c: Got credentials: uid=1001 gid=1001 success=1 I: protocol-native.c: Enabled SHM for new connection I: client.c: Client 43 changed name from "Native client (UNIX socket client)" to "Pidgin" I: client.c: Created 44 "Native client (UNIX socket client)" I: protocol-native.c: Got credentials: uid=1001 gid=1001 success=1 I: protocol-native.c: Enabled SHM for new connection I: client.c: Client 44 changed name from "Native client (UNIX socket client)" to "Pidgin" I: module-volume-restore.c: Restoring sink for <pulsecore/protocol-native.c$Pidgin> I: module-volume-restore.c: Restoring volume for <pulsecore/protocol-native.c$Pidgin> I: module-alsa-sink.c: Trying resume...
