...

check if pulseaudio is running is the key here. You have to check if PulseAudio is running, on your terminal try pgrep pulseaudio and see if it outputs a number.

it return : 1903

@SolidRacoon could you try running pactl stat and pactl info and share the output? Also, pacmd-listsources

hey @Pryganss could you share the glava config and also, try glava --audio=fifo --desktop as that kinda works better for mpd/ncmpcpp

[pryganss]

I'm just using the default config, glava --audio=fifo --desktop returns a "no such file or directory" error
