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

[Stefan Baur]

Hi Mike,

I tried to follow the suggestions on
> This hints that firefox is not using PulseAudio. Maybe this
> documentation helps a bit...
> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio

but as I'm using Debian Squeeze and not Ubuntu, it is more of a trial 
and error experience.

I did three things:
a) Install some more pulseaudio-related packages, among them "paman", 
which confirms that I have a working pulseaudio connection between host 
and client, from what I can tell
b) Create the /etc/asound.conf file as described on the wiki.ubuntu.com page
c) Run paplay somefile.wav to confirm that sound works on the 
commandline - it does.

Now, when I try to run a Youtube video in Iceweasel, it freezes and I 
see the following stuff on the command line:
> ALSA lib pulse.c:229:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: 
> Zeitüberschreitung
>
> ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1401:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card

Next up: Trying to follow John A. Sullivan III's reply.

Kind Regards,
Stefan
