[X2go-dev] Looking for information on the future of x2go (and some other x2go-related stuff)

Hi Mike,

Hmm, it points to

/home/USERNAMEHERE/.x2go/C-USERNAMEHERE-50-1299082964_stRTERMINAL_dp32/.pulse-client.conf

and contains

default-server=localhost:30002
cookie-file=.x2go/C-USERNAMEHERE-50-1299082964_stRTERMINAL_dp32/.pulse-cookie

I decided to start iceweasel from the xterm window I used to check the 
settings you asked for, and when trying to access a youtube video, I see 
these messages scrolling by:

I'm a bit surprised to see ALSA references, when I'm trying to use 
pulseaudio. Do I need some kind of wrapper script or environment 
variable to make iceweasel use pulseaudio?

Kind Regards,
