Hi.
In the init script, PA gives a warning if PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START != 1:
> PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
Why so?
a) When reading /etc/default/pulseaudio, actually the opposite is suggested there:
> System mode is not the recommended way to run PulseAudio…
b) Even if the "conflict" of (a) was resolved by removing that text... a warning
on per user sessions would IMHO be unappropriate, if there were not really strong
reasons against them, like security issues, or something fundamentally not working.
Cheers,
Chris.
