To prevent applications from using ALSA's OSS emulation and bypassing PulseAudio (thereby preventing other applications from playing sound), make sure the module snd_pcm_oss is not being loaded at boot.
#Pulseaudio volume control install#
This package contains the necessary /etc/nf for configuring ALSA to use PulseAudio.Īlso install lib32-libpulse and lib32-alsa-plugins if you run a x86_64 system and want to have sound for 32-bit multilib programs like Wine, Skype and Steam. Install pulseaudio-alsa from the official repositories. If you are not running GNOME, KDE, or Xfce, and your ~/.xinitrc does not source the scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d (such as is done in the example file /etc/skel/.xinitrc), then you can launch PulseAudio on boot with: If PulseAudio is not running and users are using X, the following will start PulseAudio with the needed the X11 plugins manually: Note: As mentioned previously, PulseAudio is very likely launched automatically via either /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/pulseaudio or the files in /etc/xdg/autostart/ if users have some DE installed. Optional KDE plasma applet: kdemultimedia-kmix (If KMixfail to connect to PulseAudio at boot you may need to edit /etc/pulse/nf to include autospawn = yes instead of autospawn = no.).Optional web volume control: PaWebControl.
