I am using openbox no kde or gnome installed. I consult wiki but can't find answer
Thanks in advance

Re: [solved]PulseAudio not starting

Does it really exit? It's not really saying anything about that.

I see two problems in the log - I don't know if they're fatal. Starting openbox with "exec ck-launch-session openbox-session" and putting yourself in the audio group (gpasswd -a artur audio) might help.

Re: [solved]PulseAudio not starting

I: main.c: Daemon startup complete.

So what's the problem? Its starting, but not loading the module for your sound-card (possibly something else has control of that via alsa).

Re: [solved]PulseAudio not starting

Sorry for late answer. I checked with fuser and card wasn't used by any program and I don't have alsa installed. Adding to audio group solved problem. Thanks
