Pulseaudio refuses to work with the App

[tux93]

Hi, I'm currently trying to get your App to work with my Setup and am encountering the following problem: Instead of reducing/rising/muting every button press in the app results in this log output from pulseaudio [pulseaudio] socket-server.c: bind(): Address already in use [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-esound-protocol-unix" (argument: ""): initialization failed. [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed. [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon. [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed. I'm on openSUSE 12.3, pulseaudio 3.0-1.6.1

Maybe you can give me a hint, when issuing the pactl commands the app uses from a Terminal it works

Hi!

What happens if you try this from another computer:

ssh <ip> "pactl set-sink-volume 0 +5%"

I get this: pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused

Okay, so the problem lies inside your pulseaudio setup. Actually, I am not too deep in the pulseaudio world - sorry.

I know this is Ubuntu, but you may give it a try: http://askubuntu.com/questions/70560/why-am-i-getting-this-connection-to-pulseaudio-failed-error

Seems to be a pulse bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/832401

ok, so it was not a bug but a configuration error of my sshd but now I'm at the next problem: the app is configuring the wrong sink

Find out the number of your main sink and enter that number in the app.

now I feel like an idiot :P I knew I saw that setting somewhere but forgot that it was in the Remote Setup
