Package: pulseaudio
Version: 12.2-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

   I've PulseAudio selected as 'autostart', but there is no sound.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

   * What was the outcome of this action?

   Inspecting my Beowulf system I noticed that only this was running:

   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/wrapper-2.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/xfce4/panel/plugins/libpulseaudio-plugin.so 21 18874412 pulseaudio
PulseAudio Plugin Adjust the audio volume of the PulseAudio sound system

   Moreover, attempt to start pavucontrol or mixer from the Xfce panel
   results in the mixer hanging with ""Establishing connection to
   PulseAudio" message.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

   Running pulseaudio and working sound.

    However, I've found the solution to the problem by browsing Debian's
    bugtracker - see:
    https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=923203

    So, solution, for Beowulf and probably Ceres is to uncomment

    #00-disable-autospawn.conf

    line in $ /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf

    and then pulseaudio is correctly started as it is visible by:

    $ ps ax | grep pulse
 3587 ?        Sl
    0:03 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/wrapper-2.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/plugins/libpulseaudio-plugin.so
    21 18874412 pulseaudio PulseAudio Plugin Adjust the audio volume of
    the PulseAudio sound system
