<p>Package: alsa-utils<br>
Version: 1.2.6-1<br>
Severity: important<br>
<br>
Dear Maintainer,<br>
I use PulseAudio by starting it as a service:<br>
</p>
<p>---<br>
</p>
<p>[Unit]<br>
Description=PulseAudio system server</p>
<p>[Service]<br>
Type=notify<br>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pulseaudio --daemonize=no --system --realtime
--log-target=journal</p>
<p>[Install]<br>
WantedBy=multi-user.target</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>but after updating the alsa-utils package from version 1.2.5-2 to
version 1.2.6-1, pulseaudio does not start and the status of the
service returns this error:</p>
<p>PulseAudio [1620]: Failed to Load Module
"Module-Native-Protocol-Unix" (Argument: ""): Initialization
Failed.<br>
</p>
<p>I have compared the contents of the two packages and I noticed
that the services:<br>
<br>
- alsa-state.service<br>
- alsa-restore.service<br>
<br>
have been moved from the path "/usr/lib/systemd/system" ->
"/lib/systemd/system" and this create the problem.</p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;background-color:#ffffff;">ln -sfn
/lib/systemd/system/{sound.target.wants,alsa-restore.service,alsa-state.service}</span><br>
/usr/lib/systemd/system/</p>
<p>And this time, at reboot, everything worked.<br>
<br>
I think it is necessary to create this symlinks in the
post-installation script to avoid interruptions of the audio
system.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Antonio</p>
