[Bug 531733] Re: timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups
Adding timidity to group pulse is unnecessary, as is restarting the timidity daemon. Just 'usermod -a -G pulse-access timidity' on your running system, and it works. -- timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531733 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 531733] Re: timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups
Just ran into this in Xubuntu 10.04. User timidity needs to be added to group pulse-access.

[Bug 531733] Re: timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups
There is unfortunately not a best way of how to make timidity, when run as a system-wide daemon, to talk to pulseaudio, which should be userwide. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Package changed: linux (Ubuntu) => timidity (Ubuntu) -- timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531733 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

I'm having probably similar issue, but editing /etc/group and restarting TiMidity does not help me. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1534259 -- timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531733 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

I can also confirm this bug still exists in Lucid, and the same fix applies. -- timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531733 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 531733] Re: timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups
Tried this using Ubuntu 10.4. The problem still exists. The difference is that I no longer get error messages on post-install of timidity nor when restarting timidity, but the problem still exists. It appears timidity still needs to be part of the pulse and/or pulse-access groups. Used the install DVD as a Live DVD. 1. Install noteedit r...@ubuntu:~# apt-get install noteedit 2.

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: timidity gave an error during the install (actually post install steps) when it tried to start the daemon. Gives the same error when running /etc/init.d/timidity start. Could not get sound to work with noteedit (which wants to use timidity). By adding timidity to the pulse groups I still got the error, but could now see and add timidity devices to noteedit. Turns out adding timidity to the audio group is not enough. It also needs to be added to "pulse" and/or "pulse-access" # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 timidity gave an error during the install (actually post install steps) when it tried to start the daemon. # apt-get install timidity Reading package lists...

[Bug 531733] Re: timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups
Hi bonzo, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 531733 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: kernel-sound ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kj-triage ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- timidity needs to be added to pulseaudio groups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531733 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
