Public bug reported:
I'm using Ubuntu Mate 16.04 with the current updates.
When I start the computer, pulseaudio is not working after I've logged
in.
If I type:
start-pulseaudio-x11
from the command line, I get
"Connection failure: Connection refused
pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused"
and I cannot play any sound.
If I type pulseaudio& on the command line, I can get sound in some
applications (e.g. Audacity) but not others (e.g. Firefox or other
browsers). At some point a command line message appears that says: "E:
[pulseaudio] bluez5-util.c: GetManagedObjects() failed:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message
bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the
network connection was broken."
I'm not clear why there's a reference to bluez5-util, since I don't have
bluetooth on my machine.
