*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 228487 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228487 Can you be more specific? I don't see anything in /etc/default/pulseaudio that would seem applicable to this, and I also don't see how this ALSA vs Pulse conflict has anything to do with 228487's Wine vs ALSA conflict.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 228487 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228487 No problem I will try to explain: The sound problem I had was that after upgrade to version: 1:0.9.16~test4-0ubuntu4 I got Failed to connect: Connection refused. All the files could play (video and sound files) but no sound since no mixer and/or pulseaudio was not available. Everything in the pulseaudio mixer was marked as: n/a lspci -v (as user and as sudo) gave me the same result with the sound card recognized. However no sound in _anything_ but files where playing. I then tested to change the value: PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=0 to be =1 instead and rebooted the machine. And the sound came back. Mixer and everything came back. The pulseaudio manager now also shows the information for the soundcard and mixer. -- PulseAudio Sound Server: Failed to connect: Connection refused https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207312 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It's been more than a month now since the previous comment and this problem is still not resolved as far as I can tell. I'm running a fresh install of Ubuntu Hardy 64 and need sound on the machine.

It seems like my woes were from speech dispatcher blocking the sound device before pulseaudio could get to it. See bug 213755.

Enabling pulseaudio system-wide is not the right solution. I'm stumped as to what is causing this.

I dunno about the pulse and pulse-access groups, I would think that they are important. Thanks for the tip with /etc/default/pulseaudio. I did not enable system mode there as the comment in the file recommends against it. However, the comment also mentioned that esd should be enabled in the Sound preferences, and for some reason it wasn't. Checking the Enable software mixing (esd) box on the Sounds tab fixed my problem. -- PulseAudio Sound Server: Failed to connect: Connection refused https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207312 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 207312] Re: PulseAudio Sound Server: Failed to connect: Connection refused
It sounds like something else is using alsa, and PulseAudio can't access the sound device, as pulseaudio talks to the hardware directly, instead of using dmix. Check that you have no other sound related apps running, excluding the mixer applet. One way to do this is to check whether any device nodes are open in /dev/snd. -- PulseAudio Sound Server: Failed to connect: Connection refused https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207312 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
