After installing pulse audio, would I need to reboot (or restart X)? TIA for any assistance, Zenaan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

JFTR if the user is a new member in the group audio (or any other group) you need to log out and in.

Occurs with at least two mp3 files (didn't happen in past, been some months since I played any audio). Tried from: mplayer command line, vlc gtk gui, and audacious gtk. Does not occur with alsaplayer. I'm still running pavucontrol, a pa mixer gui - on its Playback tab, the second section down is titled ALSA plug-in [alsaplayer]: ALSA Playback, so alsaplayer plays back via alsa output, and does not suffer the problem. So I now try Audacious again - settings changed to use alsa output: no problem seen. Played one song only - now testing a long playlist. I've queue up a couple hours, and testing again (alsa). I have not tested a long queue this (recently) with alsa, although I don't recall this type of problem ever before, so I believe it'll not occur, and is only a pa artifact. Any ideas how to configure pulseaudio to work well on debian sid (/xfce)? TIA Zenaan PS, I use apt-get to install, and chose to accept the add real-time to audio group option/question which came up on installation; groups shows my user is a member of audio group. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
