[solved] mpd service fails

So I'm trying to run mpd globaly (prefer to run it as seperate user) and it keeps failing (listed as failed in the list of daemons produced by systemctl) I checked and rechecked the file permessions and it seems like everything is correct so I figured maybe I made mistake in the config or maybe it's something else

my config 

# See: /usr/share/doc/mpd/mpdconf.example

user "mpd"
pid_file "/run/mpd/mpd.pid"
db_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpd.db"
state_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpdstate"
playlist_directory "/var/lib/mpd/playlists"
music_directory "/multimedia/Music"
log_file "/var/lib/mpd/log"
sticker_file "/var/lib/mpd/sticker.sql"
mixer_type  "software"
restore_paused "yes"
auto_update "yes"

audio_outpot {
      type  "pulse"
      name  "Local Music Player Daemon"
      server  "127.0.0.1"
}

BTW I've got a couple of unrelated issues should I mention them in the same thread or is it OK to start a thread for each seperately?

Re: [solved] mpd service fails

Take a look at "audio_outpot {" line. You have a typo.

Thank you! I can't believe I missed that *run away in shame*
