#29360: Tor-Browser Linux: no audio playback (pulseaudio) on CentOS 6 --------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: tries | Owner: tbb-team Type: defect | Status: needs_information Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Applications/Tor Browser | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: --------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
Comment (by strix): In Slackware 14.2 stable (which runs pulseaudio 9.0), the default install of Tor Browser 9.0.1 (from tor-browser SBo, which uses the pre-built package from dist.torproject.org) will crash the pulseaudio user daemon. Usually, the user will need to kill the daemon after closing Tor Browser so a functioning daemon can be spawned for other applications. The fix in Slackware 14.2 is nearly identical to what the submitter of this ticket suggested for CentOS 6: {{{ $ cp -pf $HOME/.esd_auth $HOME/.tor-browser/INSTALL/Browser $ cp -pfr $HOME/.config/pulse/ $HOME/.tor-browser/INSTALL/Browser }}} (The cookie file is copied with the pulse directory.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29360#comment:14> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
