zenseidkhello, I asked yesterday about a UI lagging issue and was adviced to add backport repos and use ubuntustudio-controls instead of Cadence and wipe ~/.pulse. I did that and everything was good. This morning, however, pulseaudio is not loading11:35
zenseidkubuntustudio-controls is set to bridge pulseaudio via jack, but it's not visible in the connect section og QJackCtl11:36
zenseidk_I'm on 18.04 but installed KXstudio which caused some issues. I added backports and updated to newest ubuntustudio-control and removed Cadence and cleared ~/.pulse. Now my pulseaudio is not working. What to do?12:14
OvenWerkszenseidk: how do you have -controls set up? There is a checkbox for pulse and also a dropdown for choosing which outputs to connect to.15:19
zenseidkhi, I got it working  by pulseaudio -D15:19
zenseidkthere was no dropdown box15:20
zenseidkpulseaudio was not running15:20
OvenWerksThat would be something left over from cadence15:20
OvenWerksI will probably have to study cadence much more carefully and add something to -controls to get around whatever Falktx has done15:22
OvenWerks the -controls applet was designed to not mess with any of the normal working of things so that it could be turned off or removed without leaving wierdness behind15:23
OvenWerksCadence chooses instead to change the user whole audio configuration in the various user config files15:25
OvenWerksBecause they are user config files, removing the package does not fully fix this.15:25

OvenWerkszenseidk: do you have a folder ~/.config/Cadence/ ?15:50
zenseidkyes15:50
OvenWerkshmm, how about ~/.config/autostart/<something about cadence>15:52
zenseidkI have no autostart folder15:55
OvenWerksNo I see he istalls it in /etc/xdg/autostart15:56
OvenWerksthe package removal shouold deal with that ok.15:56
zenseidkthere is a cadence.sessions-start.desktop15:57
zenseidkin /etc/xdg/autostart15:57
OvenWerksOdd uninstall removes that15:58
OvenWerksThe package remove may not I guess15:59
zenseidkshould I remove it?15:59
OvenWerksif you have removed cadence, yes.16:00
zenseidkin config/Cadence there are a few .conf files for catia and claudia as well, I can remove the candence file from this folder, I assume?16:01
OvenWerksYou can yes16:01
zenseidkI'll liave the other config files16:02
zenseidkthere's also a JackSettings16:02
zenseidk.conf16:02
OvenWerksIf the cadence binaries are gone that _shouldn't matter16:03
zenseidkok16:03
zenseidkthanks16:03
zenseidkwhat does ubuntustudio use for vst plugins? like catia16:07
OvenWerksCarla maybe?16:08
zenseidksorry, yes carla16:08
EickmeyerCatia is merely a patchbay. Carla is in the backports ppa.16:08
EickmeyerOr, will be.16:08
OvenWerksWe are working hard to add Carla16:08
zenseidkbut is there an alternative? since it's not part of the clean install16:08
EickmeyerIt will be part of the clean install.16:09
OvenWerksIt will be, Carla runs on it's own. It does not affect the system.16:09
* Eickmeyer goes back to interview prep16:09
OvenWerksCadence is the only real problem we have with kxstudio.16:09
zenseidkokay, in 19.04?16:09
zenseidkthat should be fixanle then16:10
zenseidkfixable16:10
OvenWerksnot sure, but it will be available anything 18.04 and up from the backport PPA16:10
zenseidkniccccee16:10
OvenWerksThe ubuntustudio-installer package is being updated to be able to add the backports PPA (or remove it)16:11
OvenWerkskxstudio is a nice product and Falktx has spent a lot of time on it. However, cadence is more "intrusive" than it needs to be so we are working on making ubuntustudio-controls to be a reasonable replacement for cadance16:14

OvenWerkszenseidk: the ~/.pulse/ directory gets created (recreated) at every session start when cadence is alive. so now that you have removed the autostart you may need to remove the ~/.pulse directory again...16:21
zenseidkall right, I'll do that before I reboot next time16:22
zenseidkI have audio working, I just used "pulseaudio -D"16:23
zenseidkbut pulseaudio should start automatically16:23
OvenWerksif you haven't rebooted since you removed the cadence package, that may be why you had to do the pulseaudio -D16:23
OvenWerksthe files that cadence puts in ~/.pulse specifically turn off the pulse autostart ...16:24
OvenWerksCadence then starts pulse only if configured to.16:25
