Why can't all of this audio crap have a 'service audio restart'? function?
Probably because there isn't a system-wide audio service. The pulseaudio server usually runs in the user's desktop session.
Ok, so I add or remove a line in one of the /etc/pulse files. What do I have to kill and restart to make it re-read those config files and put the effect into service? Is a restart of X sufficient?
Right now, the only thing working is the kde sound effects. Any other source, like a new video with sound, is pure white noise at 120 db above the kde sound effects. Since I like to tour the news sites of an evening, I'll remove what I installed and reboot in about an hour if no helpful advice seems to be forthcoming.
Also, I tried to join the pulse mailing list, but FF had a whole cow over the https certificate, and I have never seen such a strong warning from FF before so I didn't ok it. Could someone advise Lennert that his sites ssh certificate is dead or compromised?
Thanks Joonas.
