Re: How to test if PulseAudio is correctly autospawning
When I launch pavucontrol , it stalls on “Establishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait…” :( And pactl info confirms that PulseAudio is not running as I get “Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused”. Any idea why is PulseAudio not autospawning?

How to test if PulseAudio is correctly autospawning
Hi, Trying to solve my sound problem step by step, it occured to me that PulseAudio does not seem to autospawn as is should per https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Running/ Is there an application that would allow me to verify this? I Eg, a software that rely on P...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Firing up JACK while ALSA and PulseAudio are running… I first try with the “ALSA -> PulseAudio -> JACK (Plugin)” bridge (in Cadence.JACK Bridges.ALSA Audio ). And I have no more sound. Two possible clues: 1. If i run an aplay command, I don't get any error message but aplay stalls. I have to manuall...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Could you post the output of pacmd list-sinks | grep -e 'name:' -e 'index' Unless I'm reading your post incorrectly it seems that the hardware works when you choose the correct output so I would guess that pulseaudio is set to use the wrong output - see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAud...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Well. I guess this is not much of a help, but several times I decided that the least complicated solution is to reinstall the whole OS. That's why my home folder is always on a separate partition. Yes, I know this could be a solution. Indeed, I use it quite regularly. But now is not a good time for...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
I did a few further tests, forced reinstalled the concerned packages and here's what I got: Everything seems fine when only ALSA is installed. Or when PulseAudio and JACK are installed but not running. (Except obviously for applications needing PulseAudio or JACK , but that's to be expected.) When r...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
To investigate further, I'd like to know if there exists — a VU Meter app dedicated to ALSA — a VU Meter app dedicated to PulseAudio — a VU Meter app dedicated to JACK — an audio equivalent to WireShark that let's you hear/see what happens at each input and output of a chained/piped/bridged audio co...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Do you folks always run Jack on your system? I do it only when dabbling with music, otherwise it's just pulseaudio...Anyhow, when something like this happen to me, the first thing I do is I delete the "pulse" folder inside the /home/.config folder. Sometimes I also delete the Cadence fold...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Remove jack from the equation, does pulseaudio work on it's own? Is it running as a process? JACK stopped and disabled (so it does not start at login), then reboot… — at login: PulseAudio does not show in the processes despite the “Auto-start at login” radio button being ticked, no sound, ALSA doe...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
What happens if you do pulseaudio --start? Any errors? Nothing happens. I get no error but there are no change in the Catia schema and I still get no sound. As far as I can see/hear, I get the same (absence of) results with $ pulseaudio --start $ pulseaudio -D # pulseaudio --system # pulseaudio --s...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Thanks for you reply. When I boot my computer, only two boxes system show in Catia: one with 2 capture_* items, the other with 8 playback_* items. There are no connection whatsoever. If I restart JACK , nothing changes. Nor if I pulseaudio -D . The only way I fond to get some connections in the Cati...

Re: No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Check in Catia if the pulseaudio jack client is actualy there, and if it the "sink" connected to the system outputs. Could you tell me more how to do so? I'm not familiar with Catia . In fact, I only know the basics of KXStudio as it was recommended to me in order to setup a system that s...

No more sound after update, probably related to PulseAudio
Hello, Despite a slight problem, I used to have sound on my Debian Stretch boosted by KXStudio . Since the last KXStudio package updates, I cannot hear a thing. Could you help? I think it might be related to PulseAudio as the aforementioned “slight problem” is. To have sound on my computer, I had to...

Re: kxstudio-default-settings . no more sound and X11 crashes
@FaTony: I do not need it per se. It's just recommended for KXstudio repository users. On the other hand it forced me to dive into the Linux sound stack and I'd definitely like to understand it better. So if you have answers to any question from my previous post, please, help yourself :wink: as mos...

Re: kxstudio-default-settings . no more sound and X11 crashes
Ok, in the meantime, I continue to hack thru all this. QJackCtl provided a few option that were on (Default) and could be changed to a specific piece of hardware. I changed all of them to hw1: HDA Intel and got sound back to lots of my apps but speaker-test , vlc and the like. While trying to determ...
