Bug#743813: pulseaudio: Pulseaudio logs an error when using KDE and systemd

[Patrick Häcker]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 5.0-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

when using KDE and systemd (other combinations not tested), with every login
into KDE the following error gets logged for pulseaudio:

Daemon already running.

This is annoying when calling something like "journalctl -p 0..3".

The reason is probably the same as in
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-bugs/2011-02/msg02096.html

The fix mentioned in answer 12 from user vjm at
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1164699#p1164699
works for me (replacing the typo ":" by a ";" and ignoring the load-module
part).

Note, that even with this fix a login followed by a logout followed by
another login results in another logged error

module.c: Module "module-device-manager" should be loaded once at most.

but this is at least not the common case.
