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