Thanks.

"udevadm trigger" added to pulseaudio.deb2sce.

I am also having the startup script of pulseaudio add the current user to the "pulse" and "pulse-access" groups.

I think that was already done (the groups thing).
After re-importing I get
Code: [Select]
jls@eeepc:~$ pulseaudio
pulseaudio: relocation error: /usr/lib/libpulsecore-2.0.so: symbol pa_format_info_free2, version PULSE_0 not defined in file libpulse.so.0 with link time reference
jls@eeepc:~$

I don't see that error on a fresh import of pulseaudio.

Below is an old but maybe useful observation on a simliar issue:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/474714

I do have a large desktop installed after a fresh pulseaudio, I will try again with a minimal one and report back if I see anything.

I will try and familiarize myself with pulseaudio and dig deeper.  But what I find helps the most is to have a Wheezy install and test Wheezy versus dCore as that helps to isolate issues.  If you have a Wheezy install or can install it, that would be of much use in troubleshooting. 

Thanks.

On both a Wheezy install and a freshly imported pulseaudio on dCore, pulseaudio starts without errors on my machine.
