No sound on Google Chrome #39

Google Chrome is installed and runs fine, pulseaudio is also installed on the host but there is no sound coming from Chrome. I'm on Wayland with sway.

It works now, I had to start pulseaudio from the console before starting linux-chrome.

What is the best way to start pulseaudio when logging in?

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

If you start Chrome via the wrapper script linux-chrome, pulseaudio is automatically started.

I have been starting it with the linux-chrome wrapper, I don't understand why it's not starting.

Commented on the closed issue #46 about this already, but since that issue is closed, I wanted to comment here as well, just in case. With 14.0-RELEASE, I can playback videos on chrome but without sound. While launching chrome via wrapper, I get a lot of "Failed to connect to the bus" errors. I had no problems before 13.2-RELEASE.

Edit: I was able to fix this issue by restarting the dbus service.

What I did to deal with the issue:

(May not be needed) move the ubuntu_enable and linux_enable thing in rc.conf before dbus_enable
Run the /compat/ubuntu/bin/chrome wrapper directly, instead of running linux-chrome
