Enabling "Allow other machines on the LAN to discover local sound devices" at the server crashes PulseAudio. PA works fine as long as I manually define the server IP at each of the client machines.
This has been this way since my Jaunty upgrade in May 2009. Maybe even before? This may have been an issue for me throughout Intrepid, too. I use to be able to "Allow other machines on the LAN to discover local sound devices" when on Hardy for sure, and maybe during part of Intrepid, too. Installed is 1:0.9.14-0ubuntu20.2 (jaunty-updates) 'uname -a' is Linux joesbox 2.6.28-16-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 20 19:48:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux Interestingly, on my 32bit laptop, I can enable the 'allow machines on LAN to discover' option without crashing PA there. Though that is not being used as a server, so maybe that's meaningless. Waiting for 0.9.15, ...still. I had hoped this issue would be fixed in Jaunty before the Karmic release. In fairness, let me add that this issue is not critical, just annoying. I use PulseAudio exclusively in my home network, and except for this annoyance, I find PulseAudio is stable and, frankly, quite magical. :) -- Pulseaudio network sinks overload CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329896 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
