Hi,
Been trying to get pulseaudio to do what I want in a multiseat configuration.
I have multiseat X working correctly, and both users are in the same room, so would like
the sound for both users to come out my single set of speakers. I have however,
been having some trouble getting pulseaudio/ConsoleKit/policykit to do what I want.
Has anyone setup something like this before in Mageia 2?
My current problem is, that whoever logs in first gets the sound card, and the
other user gets a pulseaudio dummy server. I have found a few different
blog posts, some recommending running pulseaudio --system. This however
seems more difficult than it should be, and when I try, I get the error:
Failed to acquire org.pulseaudio.Server: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Connection ":1.683" is not allowed to own the service "org.pulseaudio.Server" due to security policies in the configuration file
I think this is because I might need to add something to /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/
but, I am not sure exactly what, or how this works.
Suggestions would be welcome.
Regards
Glen Ogilvie
