Pulseaudio setup not works, while creating container from linux service #489

Closed yuraSomatic closed 1 year ago

yuraSomatic commented 1 year ago

I created linux service, that runs docker run command with pulseaudio setup from your tutorual. It works good, when started from user terminal, but fails when started from service. I think it maybe related to "Container user must be same as on host" requirement, or I need to add something like After=pulseaudio to my service file Please, give me some hint if you know what it may be.

Solved, by adding 2 env vars to the service file. Solution from this source. You can add this to your docker sound tutorual for completeness.

[Service]
Environment="XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000"
Environment="PULSE_RUNTIME_PATH=/run/user/1000/pulse/"
