The top tip is the PulseAudio documentation on the web site, that lists all the plugins and what they do. The pulseaudio-server package depends on all of the important plugins, so that gives you a working PA setup once you've started it. You might want to have a look at Guacamayo's use of PA, that uses it and will automatically switch output when new speakers are plugged in too. https://github.com/Guacamayo Ross _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
