pulseaudio is a networked sound server for Unix-like operating systems and Microsoft Windows. It is intended to be an improved drop-in replacement for the Enlightened Sound Daemon (ESOUND). Optional deps: jack-audio-connection-kit, avahi, lirc, libasyncns, orc USAGE: In almost all cases, pulseaudio should be run as a normal user daemon i.e. NOT a system wide daemon. It will be usually started by the desktop environment (KDE, XFCE, MATE) when the user logs in. In general, there is nothing more the user needs to do (configuration for particular devices or circumstances notwithstanding). If necessary, pulseaudio may be started manually with: /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 or /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-kde In the EXTREMELY RARE case that pulseaudio needs to run as a system wide daemon, the /etc/rc.d/rc.pulseaudio script is provided. It is not used at all in the usual case, as above, in which pulseaudio runs as a normal user daemon. Additionally, in the system wide daemon mode only, pulseaudio will need a pulse group/user to run as. This may be done with: groupadd -g 216 pulse useradd -u 216 -g pulse -d /var/run/pulse -m pulse See http://slackbuilds.org/uid_gid.txt for details on the uid/gid assignments.
