[SOLVED] Pulseaudio and chrooted 32bit environment

Hi, I am using Arch64 with chrooted 32bit environment (from arch wiki), which I generaly intend to use for skype (lib32-skype is really, really slow). But, there's a catch, I wanna use the pulseaudio solution for sound. It works just great without the emulation. With the emulation it is possible to play sound only via alsa. Alsa doesn't support software mixing anymore, even dmix doesn't work - that's the reason I use pulseaudio. I tried running vlc-pulse in the chrooted environment and it shouted error to stderr

[0xf3c85100] pulse audio output: No. of Audio Channels: 2
[0xf3c85100] pulse audio output error: Failed to connect to server: Connection refused
ALSA lib pulse.c:229:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused

so I assume there's a problem just with pulse refusing to accept the connection. Any ideas? RTP transport to localhost? I am really curious about this.
Thank you for your replies in advance.

Did you follow the wiki's instructions on using pulseaudio in the chroot?

Well, just don't do it again =p. I contributed that particular piece of the wiki hence knew it was there.

but if you are involved in pulseaudio even a little bit, I would like to ask you few questions concerning pulse and network, if you don't mind... Cause it's really hard to get some info about this. and to know all the configs, cause those GUIs are pain in the ass... PM or new topic, I suppose

New topic. I'm not involved in pulseaudio in that sense, but I do use it.
