| leonardus | I haven't been paying attention, is there a release date for 18.10 yet? | 14:37 |

| Rounin | TJ-: Seems that my other user, Mr. Guest Guest, also has the same issue | 20:39 |
| TJ- | Rounin: ok, that helps a lot | 20:39 |
| TJ- | so as pacmd also doesn't list it it seems to be a problem with PA finding the ALSA devices. I think the next thing to do is test the ALSA output to prove there is sound | 20:40 |
| TJ- | Rounin: can you show me "pastebinit <( aplay -L )" | 20:40 |
| Rounin | Outright moving .config/pulse and killall -9 pulse had no effect either | 20:41 |
| Rounin | TJ-: What a clever tool! http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ShfRg6Ggyw/ | 20:42 |
| Rounin | (Now all we need to do is build a network stack on top of it, and we can finally have functional bidirectional TCP again) | 20:42 |
| TJ- | Rounin: now try "speaker-test -Dfront:CARD=PCH -t wav" | 20:46 |
| Rounin | TJ-: Hmmm... "Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy" | 20:48 |
| Rounin | TJ-: And aplay with -D sysdefault led to: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1063:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to create IPC semaphore aplay: main:828: audio open error: Permission denied | 20:48 |
| Rounin | front:CARD=PCH seems to lead to "Device or resource busy" whereas sysdefault:CARD=PCH gets permission denied when creating the semaphore | 20:52 |
| Rounin | I was so sure we could blame Poettering for this one | 20:52 |
| TJ- | Rounin: I think I had the syntax slightly wrong; but I can't make it work here either - I suspected in my case PA had thw ALSA device open exclusively. The syntax should be "-Dfront:PCH -t wav" | 20:53 |
| Rounin | Ah wait wait | 20:53 |
| Rounin | Now I tried it as root | 20:54 |
| Rounin | Let me just move my cable over to the analogue port | 20:54 |
| Rounin | "left front left front..." | 20:55 |
| Rounin | Yeah, seems like it's just a permission issue | 20:55 |
| Rounin | If only I knew what to change the permissions of... Do you know where these devices are? | 20:55 |
| TJ- | Right, so maybe your user isn't in the plugdev and/or audio groups? | 20:57 |
| Rounin | There are some "pulse" and "audio" gr... Yup | 20:57 |
| Rounin | Perhaps I did something weird to make it work before, and it stopped working due to the upgrade? | 20:58 |
| Rounin | Can't imagine why it worked in the previous version | 20:58 |
| TJ- | Rounin: have you reviewed the syslog/auth.log for clues ? | 20:59 |
| Rounin | TJ-: Oh wow! A lot of "Oct 6 17:53:30 lightning dbus-daemon[846]: [system] Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="error", sender=":1.42" (uid=1000 pid=2144 comm="/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog " label="unconfined") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="org.bluez.MediaEndpoint1.Error.NotImplemented" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.299" (uid=0 pid=8035 comm="/usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd " | 21:00 |
| Rounin | label="unconfi" | 21:00 |
| Rounin | Etc. etc. | 21:00 |
| Rounin | I've added myself to the groups, so I'll try logging out entirely and then back in | 21:01 |
| Rounin | Brb | 21:01 |
| Rounin | Hello again! I had to go in with a bootable USB and change my root password... Apparently I misspelled it when I set it, and the next 5-6 times I typed it | 21:15 |
| Rounin | Anyway, TJ-, I just wanted to say it's working now, and it was indeed the pulseaudio/audio/etc. group issue. Thanks so much for your help! | 21:15 |
| TJ- | Rounin: yay! I wonder if that needs reporting since it seems it should have been handled in the upgrade | 21:16 |
| Rounin | TJ-: Yeah, hard to tell... After all, who knows how and why it was working before? | 21:17 |
