In essence, without making these local (per-user) additions to the java security policy within my account, an applet will not have permission to load the pulseaudio library or read the actual file containing the library. This is not in a packaged file because I did not research where it should go and that decision has repercussions for the security of the system. This ticket encompasses two different issues: A) libpulse-java.so is in the wrong place, which will break all java applications that wish to use pulseaudio. B) Java applets do not have permission to load native pulseaudio libraries and therefore will not be able to play audio These issues are distinct from each other and perhaps should have been reported separately. I found them together after a fair bit of work and dumped everything here. -- Java applet audio with pulseaudio broken (local apps likely broken) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/525883 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
